Kill that evil black piece of shit!
Throw that LOSER out in the snow and let him experience what that poor dog did.
Seven years is not long enough for torturing and starving this innocent pup. He will be judged one day for this horrible crime 🥵
I agree with Margo! Laws and punishment suck and there ARE animal vigilantes out there which we should all look into
and join and support! That’s the only way these scum will get what they deserve- death!
AND AGAIN I ASK – WHERE IS THE PETITION???
Human Filth. Nothing but an oxygen thief. Spray him with a firehose and chuck him outside in the snow.
In the meantime, shower that sweet dog with all the love and care in the world, which he is so desperately in need of. The laws are useless. Let’s just get vigilante justice happening.
Put his butt out in the cold.
He don’t care about anyone but himself…he needs lots of jail time so the POS can figure out why he is in there….poor little dog ..he had to suffer because of this soulless POS
Put the pathetic inbred scum behind bars!
Look at that FACE! Cruel f*cker needs a HUGE dose of what he put that precious dog through, and then on to hell forever, never to be near any innocent souls ever again.
Same thing needs to happen to the ASSHOLE!!! We need HARSHER PUNISHMENT for animal abusers!!
Could not agree nore!! That low IQ face belongs in a prison shower with Bubba the rapist I wish with all my heart that this one actually gets what he deserves!
You need to put him away for a long nag time !! Do your job.
You know, if you’d smash his face in that would get rid of that smug look. While you’re at it, break some bones before you leave him tied up outside. Have guards to make sure no one helps him.
Bury that monster 50 ft under snow and walk
I agree, 1000%! An eye for an eye!
What a lowlife narcissistic psychopathic scumbag. Dogs are our very best friends and family members and should be treated as such. Give this evil monster, the maximum penalty available preferably a very long prison sentence. How some people can be so coldhearted and cruel I will never know.
Starve this motherf@cker to death! In the cold!
agreed
This SOB should be placed in the same place he kept the dog, chained and without food, water, or shelter for the rest of his life. What an ass hole!
I’d like to knock that smug look off his face!! He is lowlife scum and he needs to go to jail and pay a huge fine and parade, his little face all over town so everybody knows what a scumbag he is!!
It sickens me to see how much that poor animal suffered and for what that POS. You reap what you sow buddy you just wait.!!
This creep deserves the same treatment as he subjected that innocent dog to. Make him suffer. I hope the pup pulls through and has much happier days ahead filled with love and compassion.
Give him the maximum penalty for his actions, just plain sick behavior. Perpetuating the stereotype. I hope someone beats his _ss.
DOGS AND ‘ ALL CREATURES’ BELONG TO GOD AND GOD ALONE!!!
HENCE THE REVERSE SPELLING OF DOG MEANS ‘GOD’
AND MAY GOD’S GREAT JUSTICE PREVAIL GREATLY IN THIS CRUEL, SADISTIC CASE AND IN ‘ALL’ ANIMAL ABUSE CASES!!!!!
I’M SURE THIS ‘MONSTER’ WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE WHEN THE THAT TIME COMES?????
I’M A GREAT BELIEVER IN ‘ WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND’
AND SO IT WILL!!!!!
GOD BLESS UPLIFT AND RENEW YOUR POOR INNOCENT CREATURE!!!
your honor plz mandate the maximum sentence possible.. he didn’t care about second chances for the dog so why should he be given a break!!!!!
