history: I have to go rescue a dog from a violent household. This place has a bad history and the cops are always there. This might not end well, but I'll work for it to be fine for the dog's sake. I have a distant relative that's been abusing their dog_comma_ and I have to rescue it from their property. That's awful.  What are you going to do? I'm bringing some backup with me to start off. I'm going to just be direct and take the dog. If that doesn't work I'll have to get animal control involved.
current: What type of dog is it?
next: It is a staffordshire terrier. It's a lovely dog and very sweet. The dog certainly doesn't deserve this treatment, no dogs do.
