Missing Dog Found Covered In Duct-Tape, Discarded In Dumpster

Omaha, Nebraska – A dog who disappeared from his family’s home last week was discovered in a dumpster on Monday morning. The dog, Leo, had been covered in duct-tape and was discarded in a dumpster outside of Sweet and Associates in Omaha.

An employee at the firm heard what she thought was a raccoon in the dumpster, but it turned out to be Leo, covered in tape around his legs and face.

Nebraska Humane Society said:

The poor pup was rushed to NHS where staff sedated him and removed the tape and cleaned off the gunk – they had to shave him to remove all of the debris.
He has some mild skin irritation,but is otherwise healthy and seemed to be in good spirits despite his condition. After the tape had been removed, he perked up and was wagging his tail as our team carefully assessed him.
Leo had an embedded microchip which allowed shelter staff to reach his owner. After reaching his family, they learned that he had been reported missing on April 11. The shelter shared Leo’s owner’s comments after learning what happened to her dog:

“He’s the sweetest dog! I don’t know why anyone would do this,” said Erin, who was incredibly emotional upon learning what happened. She is going to be giving him a nice bath and taking him to his vet for a full checkup.”

  1. I sure would show this bastard what ‘duct tape’ was all about! In fact he would be begging me to finish him. And before the do-gooders’ start moaning about this turds rights, as far as I am concerned he has none! People like this make me sick and angry. They are just arrogant sods who think they can do what they like.
    Please, someone or some fired up gang find this tosser and seriously show him the error of his ways with no holding back. And hopefully his whereabouts will soon become known. Let the punishment fit the crime as the Judicial system is not worth wiping ones backsides on! If they would actually grow a pair of balls And prosecute accordingly then this type of animal torture would begin to decrease as all of these buggers are cowards, and will not mess with anything that can fight back! If anyone feels the same about this waste of space prick then ‘Good on you’

  2. I think The Authorities Need To Take ALL the Animals in that Home and Put them in a Safe Place. Obviously, there is a Psychopath living in their House. That Poor Dog and all the other Pets are suffering and if someone had not have found that Dog, then it wouldn’t have survived. It’s probably someone who has Bi-Polar Disorder. That is probably the Biggest Reason for Most Pets being Abused or Killed at the hands of their owners. And Stop Giving Away Pets to People. Charge a Large Sum Of Money for them in the States. You may as well just kill them now if that’s the case anymore.

  3. The reward was initially for $1000 however, I personally donated an additional $500 towards the reward fund when the initial story broke. I’m sure other donations to the reward have been received as well. Someone knows something and needs to come forward!!

  4. EVERYBODY PRAY FOR THIS PERSON TO BE REVEALED…THAT WHOEVER DID IT, WILL NOT SLEEP TIL THEY CONFESS OR THAT THEY TELL A FRIEND WHO REPORTS IT…PRAY FOR LEO’S TORMENTER.

  5. I hope whomever removed the duct tape was wearing gloves and saved the tape for the police. The fingerprints of the a-hole responsible are all over it, & with any luck this pos has an arrest record.

  6. You know it was someone in that family. Nobody “steals” a dog and duct tapes and discards it like that. This was not a torture thing this was a gat rid of the dog thing.

    • I agree with you, it was either someone in the family OR it was a close neighbor that knew there was NO camera where they dumped the dog!!

    • So with mouth, eyes and legs being ‘duct taped’ up and not being able to move or hardly breathe, and thrown in a dumpster to die an agonising death is NOT classed as torture then!!!
      Maybe you should be subjected to the same as this innocent little dog whereby I expect you would soon change your bloody mind!!! If you cannot submit anything sensible then all I can say is—- don’t bother!!! It just makes normal people seriously angry reading waste of space submissions like this!!

  7. Law enforcement must find the person/s who did this to Leo. If they are not caught they will do it again. Such arrogance & superior mindedness is dangerous to society & community. FIND THEM! HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE for what they did to a sweet helpless dog. EVIL EXISTS!

  8. We are truly the most dangerous and invasive species on the planet, despite the many good and caring people who exist. I will never understand how people can be so cruel and violent to nonhuman animals.

  9. So horrible!!! It’s so scary how many sick people there are on this Earth. If only his abuser could suffer the same fat. So glad someone found him.

  10. Poor little Leo…what he’s been through should only ever be suffered by the sadistic cowardly cretins who do these things to innocent helpless beings. Dear, sweet lives should never be put through hell. These evil fools surely must have hell to pay for what they’ve done.
