I wish I hadn't read this. Sick!

Puppy abuse reward offered; Police hope cash leads to arrests

An animal abuse case involving a Labrador puppy that was euthanized after having his eyes, ears and mouth glued shut remained under investigation Tuesday, with outside interests offering up to $3,000 in cash for information leading to an arrest and conviction.
Gautier Police Capt. Eddie Williams said investigators still have no leads or suspects in the case. Investigators are hoping the cash reward will spur someone to help them.

"We're still trying to find out what happened," Williams said Tuesday.

The Labrador was discovered by an unnamed individual Thursday on Martin Bluff Road near Singing River Grocery. Authorities said someone apparently used PVC pipe glue on the puppy.

The Labrador was rushed to Town and County Veterinary Clinic for possible treatment, but staff members there said it had to be euthanized.

Why? Why in the world would someone do this??? It makes no sense to me. I can't wait to get home and hug my Lab as hard as I can.

This poor angel. If only I could get my hands on the that did this, let me tell you I would do worse than what they did to this puppy. And I would sleep like a baby afterwards.

This sent chills down my spine.

Poor little pup. I sure hope they catch the perp.

Something similar happened here last year. I don't know all the details because I couldn't bring myself to watch the coverage but I know the puppy survived. It takes a really twisted person to hurt an animal.

The evilness people have in their heart. Poor little pup.

There's a saying...

Not he is great who can alter matter..but he who can alter my state of mind.
Ralph Waldo Emerson The American Scholar

This world is making me so pessimistic...It means decent members of society are going to have to work even harder. One way to do it would be to make animal abuse a felony (IMO). Anybody who can mistreat any living thing, especially that which is helpless, is not a necessary (and certainly not wanted) element in our existence. People tend to disagree with my view, thinking that if there is anything to learn from a situation or event then that event itself is necessary. Well, this is what I've learned: that some people are cruel and can become crueler. I've learned I don't want to reform or rehabilitate them - I want to get rid of them. :banghead:

You just summed up perfectly how I've been feeling lately. Great post. :clap:

CuriousAnne · Jul 26, 2006

I didn't read the whole article (can't read that sort of stuff) but I got the basic idea of what happened. I'm speechless and almost in tears. I can't wait to go home and hug and snuggle with my lab too.

Unfortunately I think I think many of the decent folks in this world are feeling the same way .. I know i do. I guess the lawmakers dont understand that these first victims may be pets or animals but these same perp's go on to commit even worse crimes against the rest of the human population.. anybody that could do such a hateful thing against a puppy is likely to go to do far worse... maybe if these guys were busy serving time for their first crimes then maybe have a chance to get them off the streets before the start in on their human victims..

There's a Dahmer in the making.

Ntegrity · Jul 26, 2006

I think this one's already made, Jeana. So sick.

Don't they go from animal to humans? Maybe this one can be put down before that happens.

The cruelty of such an act is unspeakable!!!:furious: :furious: :furious: :behindbar Labs are the sweetest dogs. A Lab puppy would never intentionally hurt anyone except for play biting. My 2-year-old lab even let a baby take a bone out of her mouth!

cathie I totally agree with you ,I cant count the number of times i have read that so called rehabillitated people have gone on to commit worse crimes .Look at Avery .

KrisNine · Jul 26, 2006

I agree. Anyone that can do that to a defenseless puppy has an unimaginable cruelty to them. People are always looking for the signs when someone ends up being another Dahmer, well here it is. I just think they are too blind to see sometimes.

What a sick, sick person.

BTW - CuriousAnne - your Labby is a beauty.

Floh · Jul 26, 2006

I. can't. read. this.

just the title horrifies me and i know it has something to do with cruelty to an animal which tears at my soul.

i only opened the thread up to say that. i can't read details or replies.

knowing people at Websleuths, you have all raged what i would rage.

Gmommy · Jul 26, 2006

I tend to agree that animal abuse should be treated as a felony. Especially when you look into the future of a lot of animal abusers-they tend to be more likely to commit crimes toward humans-violent and sadistic ones at that.

If young animal abusers were charged with felony, given intervention and counseling instead of a slap on the wrist misdimeanor and a fine perhaps things would change just a little.

This crime just makes me sick to my stomach-regardless if it happens to any living thing it is just sickening.

CuriousAnne · Jul 26, 2006

thank you KrisNine! she's my baby! i came home tonight and gave her lots of hugs and love.

Jeana(DP)--Since you are the moderator here(and a good one),may I respectfully submit that these awful animal-cruelty subjects be banned from any thread--I have a deep love for all animals,and I'd rather not be subject to this "subject'---thank you very much

I 100% understand the pain at reading this. But, what you have to understand is that this is a marker for serial killers.This could be your child or mine as the next victim.It is so importent to identify this perp before escalation. It could save someone but, alas, it couldn't save this pup.

The crime forum is tough stuff. Most of it is really hairy and heartwrenching but if we are going to help we have to be educated as how to recognize abhorrent behaviors.

I am giving you a cyber hug and hope you help educate too.
