Police Rescue 3-Day-Old Puppies Left to Die in Plastic Bag
Associated Press
August 04, 2010
SOUTHFIELD, Mich. — Southfield police say they’ve rescued a pair of 3-day-old beagle puppies that were left to die outside in a tied plastic bag.
Lt. Nick Loussia tells the Detroit Free Press the puppies were found in a bag on the ground tied to a pole outside a home Monday afternoon. Someone called police after seeing the 74-year-old homeowner leaving the puppies.
Loussia says the puppies started moving and making sounds after they got fresh air.
He says the owner wanted to kill the puppies because he had other pets and they were “causing problems.”
He was cited for animal law violations, charges that carry up to 90 days in jail.
Authorities also took nine other dogs from the home. There’s no immediate word if the animals are adoptable.

They should place his head in a plastic bag, tie him to a pole and handcuff him. Thats so sickening what he did to those poor defenseless puppies. Theres no excuse for that.

My pet peeves. 1) Someone who steal other peoples hard earned stuff 2) People using their grandmas handicap placard to park in the handicap spots 3) People who abuse animals just because the animal cannot talk or fend for itself.

What is with people lately - pay the fifty bucks and drop them off at a shelter - or better yet ... ummmm ... be a responsible pet owner and spay and neuter your animals.
