OP, i 1000% support you and think you made a huge difference in your friends life. Her husband could have eventually killed her and her sweet little dog. Ths is very serious and was not going to get any better He is a violent man and all the things he was doing to his wife and puppy would have only ecalated , I saw this in your posts just at how he was abusing the poor little puppy. I am very glad that your friend is going to be protected and she can get out , and be with her family . Thank God you did step in when you did, you may have saved your friends life and her little puppy.
