In VA Dogfighting is a Class 6 Felony with a max sentence of 5 years and $ 2,500 fine.

Well Wikipedia said that his co-conspirators received sentences longer than the prosecutors requested and his was longer than theirs. The failed drug test and the fact that it didn't appear that he was fully cooperating with officials added time.

The max is five years. Most people never get the maximum for anything.
