Its funny you say that.. I got called by the sherrifs station down there had to go down there this morning at 7 am. They had me tell them again what happened and then asked me to call AC.

What i found out was the dude had 2 more pups and they were even worse then the pup i had taken and they wanted to know if i could help them find a place to home them after the 10 days mandatory hold. Which was no problem so i gave them my brothers number and a friend of mine who has been looking for a new pup anyways since his other dog is nearing 13 years old.

They then had me fill out paperwork for the pup i brought home. Gave me a free 5-in-1, bordatella, d-worm, free spay certificate, and a free microchip.

Then while im doing this I was just talking found out the guy is facing charges for animal abuse, animal endangerment, and child endangerment. And he is on a list they have where while he is living in this county they can drive by his house every so often and if in his yard there is any signs of dogs or if they get reports of a dog being there he can be arrested again immediately and all dogs taken.

Made me happy lol

That's great! Hopefully he gets a harsh enough sentence that he thinks twice before he does something like that again. And you did a really good thing finding those pups homes. Good job.

Cuts and scars don't mean dog fighting, expecially on a seven week old pup. Neither does beating a dog. In this case it just means you ran into a dirtbag. Sucks that this guy even owned a dog, and sucks worse that he is passing his methods on to his son.

Yeah, it doesn't necessarily mean it, but the best case scenario is the guy abused the dog, which is also illegal.

[Desflahd]

Also sucks that that is the best case scenario.

Yep. I'm not wanting to jump to conclusions but it seems like no matter what the police looking into it wouldn't be a bad idea.

Yea well here is a picture.. He is kinda cute.. and hopefully at 7 weeks i got him out of their young enough for him not to be ruined in the head

[JesikaFlpk]

What happened with the adult dog? Did I miss it?

[huylibizonoff]

Thank you so much for taking the little guy! Alice in Wonderland in the background made me think of this, just a name suggestion. What about "Hatter" as a possible name?

You might be amazed at how resilient many dogs are and how quickly many bounce back once they're taken out of a harmful situation.

Give him a good life. Make sure he understands that humans are to be trusted. Give him lots of treats and love and provided he's wired right, he should be fine.

[Jxmwzgpv]

Damn, that's quite a day. I can't believe the guy called animal control on his own dogs.

Sounds like they might be affiliated with dog fighting though, with the cuts and scars on the puppy and the "training" the dog by beating him. Might be something worth discussing with the police?

[ZanazaKar]

yea because he was trying to make the dog stand idt he meant dog fighting so much as trying to make it stack.

I hope so.. since he has been here he is kind of just laid around in his new crate went to the bathroom and goes right back to his crate and he shakes alot

Ya got to wonder what sort of loser you came across but then given the guy had so tiny a set of balls he had to yell such demeaning words at a woman? he wasn't much. The guy's one of those "ball-less wonders" that obviously thought by having a bully he was someone.

Just take care of the pup, he's cute.

[Peter Hill]

I know two-week shutdowns are generally not needed for puppies but because your little guy has been through this ordeal, you might want to look into it:

He's probably terrified and doesn't know if he can trust you at all. The last thing you wanna do is scare the crap out of him by making him do too much at once.

Alright so yesterday we went back to apple valley to visit family. Me and my brother in law were walking down the street when i see this young boy hitting and kicking this little puppy and bigger dog which was a pretty good size am bully..

Me being me i walked up and tried to explain to this kid, who couldn't of been older than 5, how he needed to stop hitting on these two dogs. Well around the time this kid says he understands his dad comes out calling me "nigga" and "cuh" and telling me to "come at him".. well i didn't get what this meant at this time so i figured he meant come talk to him.

After telling me his son was "training" his UKC "pit bulls" we got into a brief argument because of how the kid was holding the poor pup off the ground by his leash and his parent said nothing. Well all of a sudden the little boy starts crying and you hear the puppy scream. we turn around and the bigger dog nipped the kid. The dude ran over and beat the poor dog nearly to death before i got over to him and got him off the dog.

He looked over the kid and found no marks while i looked over the poor dog. He called AC and they wouldn't let me take the dog after it was going to be HA. But the dude decided he was done with this "piece of shit breed" and i walked away with the pup and its paperwork.

So now i got this pup home and as a 7 week old puppy he has at least 5 good size cuts, 3 big scars, and is full of worms.. I believe I'm going to just bring him back to health and then place him out to a new home on a spay/neuter.

but with my luck my wife will fall in love with him and he will stay here. Although i am going to try to avoid that we don't need a 4th dog at this moment. But currently he is in a crate in the garage with a heater so that i can have him away from the other dogs for at least 14 days.. As poorly as he was treated who knows whats wrong with him.. i will find some out tomorrow at the vet.

[OwdBKKHO]

Good job stepping in! And Im glad the polce came.. Hopefully thwy can get an animal abuse charge on this mother fcker! People like that make me so sick. At least he was willing to give the pup to you so it can be safe now! As for the kid, Im glad he got bit.. He needs to how it feels to get beat on cuz obviously his dad isnt teaching him!

[dumadegg]

and your dog in your avatar is amazing looking for a big dog.. most big dogs are super lippy and fat but he isnt

Thanks Snaps is pretty amazing. It's probably cause he's a working dog [hog dog] since I've had him, 4 years now.

[OgrGlgHu]

That is a seriously cute puppy! Good that you saved him from that asshat and I hope the guy never gets another dog...ever.

He was pretty bad.. the guy was hitting and kicking it before i grabbed him off the dog just laid there for the 20 mins till AC got their. His side was so swollen

[ZanazaKar]

Umm, I feel a little bad that the kid got bit but he was beating the dog!! That's not HA, that's self defense.

i fully agreed even to the point i offered to take the adult male too.. they wouldn't let me
