Ontario County, New York – An Ontario County man was arrested and charged after leaving his dog outside overnight, without shelter, in subzero temperatures. The frigid overnight stay on the porch gave the unsheltered dog frostbite on the ears and landed 49-year-old Jamie L. Lovejoy in the Ontario County Jail on Saturday.
The injured dog was taken to the local humane society for treatment and care. Lovejoy is facing charges of animal cruelty and resisting arrest.
The Ontario County Sheriff’s Office said the dog is expected to make a full recovery.
