A jailed gangland torturer was a kingpin in the booming criminal trade in US Bully dogs. Thomas Fullerton was jailed for seven years last week for a frenzied knife attack.
He cut off part of a man’s ear with scissors and scrawled his name into his chest. Now we can reveal that Fullerton, who is also known as Thomas Kilgour, had branched out into the supply of Bully pups – a US breed made fashionable thanks to an association with hip-hop culture.
In a sick twist, Bully pups are often sold to buyers with part of their ears chopped off to give them a “devil dog” appearance. The 29-year-old set up Bad BoyBullyz Ltd in December 2021, offering Bully pups as well as micro exotic bulldogs, French bulldogs, chow chows and Shar Peis.
