| Yorkie lost sight in one eye and suffered broken ribs! Yorkie lost sight in one eye and suffered from broken ribs after being kicked by an Iraq war veteran. The man aid animals in animal shelter as a punishment, the case will be dismiss if he spend 200 hours of community service and meets other conditions.

| The article says that the yorkie is only 6lbs and belongs to the a@@ holes girlfriend. I hope she kicked him (the boyfriend) to the curb. Anyway the pup is now living with the girlfriend's parents which is probably a good thing. There is something seriously wrong with a person that behaves that way with a small defensless creature. He needs som psych help. |

| i Hope he got to pay a very expensive vet bill too... and they say he was trying to "not get bitten" again, so obviously dog and man did not get along ... which does not justify at all, he could have crated the dog instead of hurting. A large vet bill may help send the message... XOXO

| I know what the soldier did was not excusable but who knows what he saw or had to do over there that desensitized him or has caused such anger. As a mom to a combat vet with a couple of tours I saw first hand how this changes them... sometimes into something they themselves do not like. At least he took the dog and owned up to it. He will learn a lot from his community service I am sure. This will probably anger some and I apologize in advance. But he fought for this nation and deserves a wee bit of understanding and the chance to do better. |

| No, being a war vet does not excuse his behavior, but I cannot judge him. I cannot begin to understand what our military must go through when they come home from war, and we all have a breaking point. I think he showed remorse, and I do think being a soldier deserves some compassion. I hope he gets the help he needs so there is not a next time with animal or human.
