As of 2008, dog fighting is a felony in all 50 states & the District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico & the U.S. Virgin Islands. In most states, the possession of dogs for the purpose of fighting is also a felony offense. Being a spectator at a dog fight is illegal in all states except Montana & Hawaii.
