Animal Cruelty Bust After Pups Die In Cold

A 21-year-old Queens man was arrested on charges of animal cruelty after he left a mother dog and her puppies in the cold and snow on his car lot without shelter.

All the puppies froze to death.

The female Rottweiler had given birth to several puppies in the lot at 187-39 Jamaica Ave. There was no shelter or any way for the dogs to stay warm, said ASPCA Special Agent Joseph Pentangelo.

By the time ASPCA officers received an anonymous complaint on Dec. 12, several of the dead puppies had been tossed into the trash.

ASPCA officers found the mother dog desperately trying to keep her frozen puppies warm.

"They were cold to the touch," Pentangelo said.

He pointed out the temperature on that day ranged from 24 to 37 degrees, but had been below freezing for several days. There was snow on the ground.

Despite the efforts of staff at the ASPCA hospital, which tried to save the remaining puppies using oxygen, IV fluids, external heat and medicine to stimulate heart function, they died.

David Frank, who owns the lot, was arrested this week by ASPCA Special Agent Joanne Sandano and charged with two counts of animal cruelty.

The puppies died of hypothermia. Their body temperatures were so low they didn't register on the thermometer, Pentangelo said.

The mother dog, who was anemic and thin, is recovering at the ASPCA hospital.

An adult male pit bull, the father of the pups, also was removed from the site by ASPCA officers. He is being treated for intestinal parasites at the ASPCA hospital.

that S.O.B.. that person should be shot between the eyes and i really mean that....

WOW. that pi$$es me off,, why would he even have a dog, if he has no regard, for animals... I just can not fathom, how people can do things like that,, as he's in his WARM house! :mad: :thumbdown

by TWO PEOPLE in case one misses ! :mad:

DISGUSTING AND JUST HEARTBREAKING !! :( :( :( :( :( :(

Actually I think he needs a good hosing down with cold water...really really cold water then leave him in his wet clothes outside where the pups were....for a week or 2....sick bast*@!

so many people are so cruel and uncaring to animals... it makes you wonder about our society...

Saddened and disgusted...that sociopath should be thrown naked on a glacier...with an empty lighter...just to torture him. :mad:

Those poor puppies..God..I would love to get into their head for just ONE hour...to see what is going on inside their head!

Francie

put him in the cold naked until he is about to die then bring him to life then repeat

how disturbing! i feel sick...

Sorry to say but this type of behavior will continue unless we the public start demanding more from the Judicial System. When this guy comes up for sentencing everyone should be emailing the judge screaming for a tough sentence. We also need to work to change some of the laws that are on the books. This will get national attention because ASPCA Special Agent Joseph Pentangelo is on Animal Planet and hopefully more people will say "Stop The Cruelty" and not just with dogs. :cry:

How sickening!!! I can't believe that people are actually capable of such heartless acts! This makes me angry and sad at the same time...

so sad :mad: :mad: :mad:
