The dog was discovered alive and on death's door during the late April raid, and subsequently had to be euthanized. Story and video here:

That is one link I wish I had never read. This man needs to be in jail!

I couldn't read the story - but the headline said all I could stand to know for now. Nothing they do to punish this guy is ever going to be enough - I just know it. He's worse than a ghoul and monster and has lost(if he ever had) his sense of empathy and no longer feels the pain or suffering of other living things so society and innocent animals are unsafe around him. I hope they give him house arrest for the rest of his days and prevent him from ever having the care or custody of any more animals, birds, reptiles or fish of any kind for his remaining days.

This makes my heart hurt so bad. Is there no limit to the cruelty humans are capable of?

So sad, so very sad...tears rolling down my cheeks.
