Ex-Boyfriend Beats Puppy To Get Back At Girlfriend.

I just watched a video on the CNN website about a little Schnauzer mix puppy that was beaten and had detergent forced into his mouth. This little guy they say, is getting better, but has an air bubble in his lung. If it bursts, he will suffocate. The perpetrator was the owners ex-boyfriend. He broke into her house and beat and kicked the puppy to get back at her. The police are looking for the sicko. The vet in the video said she can not see him getting off easy. I certainly hope they throw the book at this creep.

I have posts on the correlation between animal abuse and domestic abuse. It is sickening. The abuser uses violence to scare the victim, and often, the animals in the home are the target. If you know of anyone abusing an animal, please contact the police. You can remain anonymous, I promise you that. I know this for a fact.
