Altoona, Pennsylvania – A teen is facing charges for allegedly trying to break a dog’s neck by hitting her in the head with a metal bat. The 17-year-old teen, unnamed because of his age, allegedly continued his efforts to kill the three-year-old pitbull, Bailey, by trying to strangle her, hit her with a pickaxe, and smashing her head into the concrete.
Against all odds, Bailey survived, but her skull was fractured and she weighed just 25 pounds when the Central PA Humane Society took her in. According to the animal welfare agency, someone reported the cruelty to the police, saving Bailey’s life. Another dog in the home, reported to be Bailey’s sibling, did not survive and was found deceased in a box.
On March 23, the shelter posted to Facebook, letting followers know that Bailey was on the mend now that she is safe:
Bailey’s story is one of heartbreak, survival, and hope. After enduring unimaginable cruelty, starvation, and severe injuries, Bailey is now safe, healing, and finally learning what love feels like. Her journey is a powerful reminder of why this work matters and why your support is so important.
The unnamed teen is facing animal-cruelty related charges.

Loser POS needs to rot in hell! shouldn’t walk the streets or breathe our air! do not just slap this evil POS on the wrist & let him go about living his life when he doesn’t care about a helpless animal’s life – charge him to the fullest exent of the law! And you are going to withhold his name because he is a minor? he isn’t playing “minor” games so he needs to be treated like an adult – no protection – let everyone know what a piece of shit he is
This thug needs his ass beat good enough that it gives him a brand new perspective and appreciation for keeping his damn hands to himself. If he was mine he would have to find a new place to call home. Ain’t no way I’d ever have that thing up in my house and around my animals ever again. We all know this is repeat behavior..just first time getting caught. Only 17 years old and already a bottom feeding shitbag..what a winner. SMDH
Completely demonic!!!!!!!!
Completely demonic!!!!!!!!
I hope they stick to the charges against this teen!! You do this horrific crime you pay for it!!
God Bless You Darling Bailey💗 I pray that you are never ever hurt by a Monster again!!
People that do this should rot in jail for at least ten years.
Yes, this sweet Bailey came face to face with pure evil!!Sweetheart,I hope that you NEVER EVER face horrible “beings” like this, EVER AGAIN!!! I am so sorry for your suffering and pain!!!!
The teen should have consequences no matter what his age is because if he can hurt an animal image him doing the same act to a human.. he needs to get Locked up in prison or a youth facility where’s he’s able to get the help he needs so he does not do this again 🙏🏻

The same needs done to him. Please spare me the underage garbage. He’s your next serial killer in the making.
I AGREE!!
So true!!!!!
SPARE ME THE VIOLINS ABOUT HIM BEING UNDER AGE. NAME AND SHAME THIS FUCKING LITTLE MAGGOT – LET THE WORLD KNOW THE HUMAN FILTH THAT HIS PARENTS RAISED. THIS ARSEHOLE DELIBERATELY AND PRE-MEDITATINGLY TRIED TO MURDER AN INNOCENT 3YO DOG; AND HAD CLEARLY ALREADY SUCCESSFULLY MURDERED ANOTHER DOG. (BOTH OF THESE DOGS WERE FAMILY PETS, AND YOU CAN’T TELL ME HIS PARENTS DIDN’T KNOW). WHY DON’T YOU NAME AND SHAME, FINE AND IMPRISON THE USELESS PARENTS, WHO DID NOT STEP IN TO PREVENT THIS HORRIFIC CRUELTY AND MURDER. THANKS TO THE GOOD SAMARITAN WHO SPOKE UP AND SAVED BAILEY’S LIFE.
THIS LITTLE PRICK IS OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW BETTER, OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW RIGHT FROM WRONG, AND SHOULD BE CHARGED AND SENTENCED AS AN ADULT. I AM SO SICK AND TIRED OF “TEENS” GETTING OFF CHARGES BECAUSE THEY ARE CONSIDERED “MINORS” – IT’S UTTER BULLSHIT.
I agree 💯💯💯💯💯💯
absolutely!!!
With you all the way on this one Sister Margo. Some submissions say that he needs help. Well yes- I fully agree. Except this ‘help’ would be in the shape of a ‘coal-hammer’ to the back of the motherfucks head! This is the ONLY way these animal torturing bastards will be stopped. If anyone feels strongly enough then ‘good on you’. Don’t feel bad afterwards as this is just a piece of shit that has to be eradicated from our world. Just make sure you do not get caught and have a good nights sleep afterwards knowing the bastard will NEVER do it again!!!
J.W.
WHY HIDE HIS NAME??? IF SOMEONE IS ACCUSED OF ANY TYPE OF HORRIFIC ABUSE, THEIR NAME SHOULD BE PUBLIC!!!!!!!! THE SAME THING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO THIS FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHERE ARE HIS PARENTS???? THEY NEED TO BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS TYPE OF EVIL WILL NOT STOP UNTIL THERE IS HARSHER PUNISHMENT FOR THESE ASSHOLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why hide this bastards name eh?? He’s not a bloody child anyway! Let’s see what this prick looks like. Show photos. But ‘Oops’ I nearly forgot that his human rights would be violated! And— we really could not have that now could we?? But what about the innocent dog’s rights? No one seems to give a shit about that as it is only a dog!! Well, it has thoughts and feelings just the same as humans! This motherfuck has to be hunted down and face a mob or gang of animal activists to deal with this piece of shit once and for all. And you know what- – you would see a rapid decline in animal torture and murder very quickly as these turds are just devout cowards who would ‘crap’ their pants if they thought they were going to get terminated! Power to the people. An ‘eye for an eye’ a ‘life for a life’. Street Justice. It really is the only way that this torture and murder will be made to stop
put this piece of shit down now
Good on you Sister Michelle,
With you all the way on this one..The bloody useless law are scared of these demented-brained sub-human bastards as they would not want reprisals or their expensive houses torching etc! The 1600s methods need airing here. You torture and murder ( animals or humans ) you get the same treatment back!! No messing. Just to mention, I am seriously NOT racist but I’ll bet this is another chocolate drop who has a 3cm pecker and needs to prove his existence through torturing, beating, and murdering innocent animals. Bet this is NOT the bastards first time either!! Sure needs to be extradited from our planet!
They know what they are doing , they should be punished. I hope he suffers for what he’s done. He can rot in hell
I would like this bastard to be beaten literally into a coma. If the inbred fuck wakes up….beat him BACK INTO THE COMA until he dies. That would be awesome.
Put the pathetic inbred scum behind bars!

Sounds like felony charges should be brought. Someone needs to do the same to this POS garbage. So will this POS’s next victim be a child or senior citizen? May he burn in hell!!!
Put this kid in a mental illness facility.
THROW this worthless being into the GATES OF HELL!!!!
This kid needs to be tried as an adult and everything possible thrown at him. Abusing an animal to that or any extent is not something that needs to be condoned by society. This kind of crime is unacceptable to let slide.
