schippsmom Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 :Dog_run: I just watched this on the news, I was in tears. They went into more detail on the news but this is enough. This is the third animal cruelty case this week. Oct 20, 2005 2:40 pm US/Eastern Washington, PA (KDKA) A realtor made a horrifying discovery in a vacant Washington home. Police say the realtor was cleaning out the second floor of a home on Church Street when the remains of a dog that had been brutally killed were discovered. Police say the dog was tortured. The male dog was found duct taped and hog-tied with his mouth taped shut. Veterinarians say the dog suffocated and that he did not die quickly. The dog apparently belonged to a family who lived nearby. The dog had been missing since Saturday. Right now, the Humane Society is setting up a reward to find out who did this horrible crime. Quote
__crazy_canine__ Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 I saw pictures of a pit bull who had the same thing done to it. Its completely sickening. I dont know how anyone can have the heart (or rather lack the heart) to do something so terrible. :evil: :cry: Quote
Crested Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 I'm daily amazed by what humans are capable of. We claim dog breeds are vicious but we should be looking at ourselves instead. :evil: Quote
behle Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 :o :x :cry: I bet some future serial killer did it. I can't wrap my mind around the idea that any sane person would find pleasure/satisfaction from the suffering of any living creature. Poor dog..... :cry: :cry: :cry: I'm reminded of what happened to my nieces poor rabbit years ago that was kept in an outside hutch inside a fenced back yard. She came home from school to find her beloved pet on her back step. It had been skinned and all its appendages had been removed. What a nightmare that was for her. She had trouble sleeping for a long time. People who torture animals deserve the same treatment, although who would be twisted enough to administer the punishment? Quote
__crazy_canine__ Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 OMG Behle! :o :cry: :evil: Your poor niece! Quote
Crested Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 [quote name='__crazy_canine__']OMG Behle! :o :cry: :evil: Your poor niece![/quote] :evil: ...what she said... Quote
schippsmom Posted October 20, 2005 Author Posted October 20, 2005 :Dog_run: The article didn't mention it but on the news they said the dog weighed not quite 15 lbs. It doesn't matter what size it is but that is just a little thing. Re is 14. Now I'm cryin' again. Quote
schippsmom Posted October 20, 2005 Author Posted October 20, 2005 :Dog_run: Behle, I'm so very sorry your neice went through that. Quote
behle Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 Thanks guys. She never talks about it even now, but she remains an avid animal lover - has three cats (all former strays) and two dogs (both rescues; one a walker hound and the other a beagle mix) and is fostering another beagle. Needless to say, they are inside dogs and cats and she has a 6 foot wooden privacy fence at her home. I'm so sorry for that little pup... Quote
CincoandDahlilasgirl Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 We had something similar at the beging of this past summer done to a min pindog posted in the paper :( Quote
imported_Irena Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 poor animals, what kind of person sombody have to be to even think about that :evil: Quote
JackieMaya Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 [quote]I'm daily amazed by what humans are capable of. We claim dog breeds are vicious but we should be looking at ourselves instead.[/quote] Unfortunately, that's so true. [quote]I bet some future serial killer did it. [/quote] I would believe that. It's been proven that kids who abuse and torture animals grow up to be serial killers. Behle, I can't even imagine what your niece went through with that! That poor girl! Quote
pyrless Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 there is a special place in hell for them. i am so angry that is all i can say on this. :evil: Quote
imported_Debbie Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 :( Behle and J.M are right......Future Serial Killer !!! :evil: Quote
courtnek Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 I too agree it was a horrible thing to do. but, if they are investigating it, did they question the owners on their relationship (or lack thereof) with this neighbor? I am leaning towards thinking the owners may know who did it. possibly a dispute over noise, or mess, or whatever.... horrible people......and quite possibly nuts. this guy/girl needs to be rounded up before something else bad happens. :o :o Quote
