a dog died today...
didnt know his name..a neighbor that I have been into it with on numerous occasions in the past starved their dog to death!They brought home
this cute lil black furry dog awhile back,I would go to my car he would bark " hello" at me..he was small ,maybe 20 pounds or so,real fluffy and
cute with a spring in his step,a real happy camper...at first they had him in the house and they would chain him to let him do his business...over time his
" chain" time got to be more and more.Soon he was spending all day on the chain..then all night.He had no shelter at all..I called Animal Welfare
League,they came out and forced them to provide shelter.Last thursday I went into St Thomas and had surgery,the weather turned off really
cold..snow,sleet,ice..nice nasty wintery mix.Day before yesterday I made my way to the mailbox and saw two kids in this back yard throwing rocks and
kicking this dog..I chased them off and called Animal Welfare League again along with Humane Society.I watched and waited,the kids never come back..I made
my way outside again yesterday and he was not responding to me ( me and the neighbor are NOT on good terms so I knew not to go in the yard especially just
out of surgery) so I called central dispatch and asked them if they could do anything,within a few minutes a Lt was at my door..I explained the situation
and he was visibly an animal lover ( he kept playing with Angelina) and he was upset by the news and the fact that no one seemed to care or respond much to
my calls..he walks into the yard,then immediately walks to their door.The dog had died.Come to find out not only was he chained outside,he had no food or
water NOR DISHES to show he had ever had any!!!!!I walked over with the officer on the second time..his " house" was simply some old boards
tacked together and leaned to a wooden fence..there was no floor.I have never in my life ever felt such anger and disgust...all I can do is cry.I wish I
had been home and able to be outside to see what was happening.I want to go to their door and beat the living sh* out of them for doing this!!I am doing
good to walk up and down the steps just yet..but the anger and want to is there.
The officer took the dog with him,I am not sure what will happen now..I hope its harsh for them,I hope they are charged,I hope they feel
guilt,I hope they see his lil sweet face every time they close their eyes,I want them to freeze and thirst,I want them to feel intense hunger!I hope they
are embarassed and have to PAY for this..if nothing else make them work in the shelter here ,cleaning,feeding,bathing..Gods I dunno I am so disgusted I am
rambling I am sorry..I just had to vent
