12.30pm A Hamilton man who had 29 dogs living on his suburban property denies 
he was breeding them for dog-fighting. 
Yesterday the SPCA and Hamilton City Council animal control officers, with a 
police officer, removed 16 of 29 dogs living on Walter Greaves' Massey St 
property. 
Mr Greaves, a truck driver , said he had twice picked up stray dogs from the 
side of the road. 
"What do you?," he asked. "Run them over?" 
A dog and a pitbull bitch with 11 puppies were not removed because they were 
registered. 
Mr Greaves said he bred them for pig-hunting, not dog fighting. "As far as I 
know none of these dogs have eaten anyone or killed anyone."
