Maybe this creep should be hogtied and told his trial is coming up oh, in a year or two.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear the dog will survive and I hope he finds a good home.

His expression reminds me of Truffles' in the Wordless Wednesday post {lovely, btw}. What different lives they've had--I hope this puppy will get the chance to experience a loving home, too! {And they'll throw that book at the creep they arrested.}
ReplyDeleteGlad they caught the guy responsible.
ReplyDeleteAmazing happy ending. So glad to hear that a rescue group is going to be taking him once the quarantine is over too!
ReplyDeleteHorrid, horrid story. I just can not understand how human beings could even think to do this, but don't presume to understand much of what's going on in this world anymore. Just incredibly grateful that this dog was found and saved and gets to recover with a rescue group.
ReplyDeleteI seriously hope that law enforcement cracks down harder on this breed of human...serial killers start out by torturing defenseless animals...I'm with Chester hog-tie him and put him in a field! WHEN WILL IT END!!??
ReplyDeleteOh, his eyes look so sad. They break my heart into a million little pieces. I hopes he has a happy life from here on out.

I agree with Chester!
ReplyDeleteThanks to animal control and the police for rescuing this dog. As far as the jerk that did this extremely cruel act, I hope that justice is done and he gets the maximum plus more...
ReplyDeleteWhat a horrible thing to do to a poor animal! I swear someday I don't like people.
ReplyDeleteWhat is wrong with people? Have they forgotten how to be compassionate and kind to all that inhabit our Earth? The stories I read here and on my Rescue groups just get more horrific daily and my heart breaks for the innocents they hurt. And not to mention the anger I have at people like this...
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness~! :( *hides little face w/ paws* how sad--mum really gets ticked off when she see's/hears/reads things like this. why are people so mean to aminals~!?!? :(
ReplyDeletebut thankfully there are people who love us to bits. :)

I am so happy the poor dog is ok. Also glad the guy got caught.
ReplyDeleteJust when I think I have a little faith in humanity, something like this comes up. I have no words, well I do, but I will spare your blog:-)
Why! Why! Why! Not sorry to say this but I would enjoy hurting this loser. Poor dog needs a super good home, hope he finds one.
ReplyDeleteI'm with the others. Let's hogtie James Worley and leave him in a field. He deserves to be eaten by fire ants.
ReplyDeletesigh. what is going on lately? are we just seeing more of this lately because we have access to the internet and see more of the stories or has animal cruelty gone up?
ReplyDeleteSometimes I just wonder what happens to people to lead them to end up like this jerk.
ReplyDeleteAwwww. The poor guy. I don't see why people say pit bulls are so mean when humans are so much worse.
ReplyDeleteChester said..."Maybe this creep should be hogtied and told his trial is coming up oh, in a year or two."
ReplyDeleteYea well I could not have put it better....o many idiots.....so little time to really kick butt!
This is no different than harming a hooman!!! Why haven't the laws changed yet???
ReplyDeleteOh and pee -s Michael Vick should not be playing football!!!! The doggies should be chopping on his b@
Humans can be so cruel!
