PermalinkI Agree Whole heartedly‼️ This type of crime hits hard it’s just likens it to some pedophiles. I know I’ll be knocked down for saying this. For some reason I feel as if I have to stand up for animal abuse and my heart is in it. I pray this individual is NEVER able to own any other type of pet Especially a Dog or cat. Thanks you Sir for your comment above ??

PermalinkI realize that most of the writers for this site don't seem to give a real shit about animals. But, there are a lot of people in this City who would really appreciate it if you would clearly inform the readers as to the whereabouts and condition of the dog. Sadly, even if this particular dog is no longer in that particular home, this a hole will just get himself another non human victim from some irresponsible back yard breeder. It's obvious this guy has never actually been truly held accountable for his crimes when one looks at his multiple arrests and convictions. So, I don't expect he will be punished in any real way this time either. POS. While I'll hope that karma occurs, I'll also hope that something worse than karma gets him shortly after he is released from jail with "time served".

PermalinkThe only person I consider more despicable than someone who would harm an animal is someone who would harm a child. There are no more two evil creatures in the universe.

PermalinkOnce the other inmates realize he abused a helpless animal, retribution might occur. I do not advocate violence however, this canine did not deserve such treatment. What happens behind the walls, happens.
