In the early days of March 2010 an Indiana woman decided she didn't want her two dogs anymore so she doused a pit bull puppy and a 5 year old Australian Cattle dog with gasoline and set them on fire. She is being charged with two counts of animal cruelty and is undergoing a pysch evaluation. The burns were very extensive on both their bodies and are just now beginning to heal. They became local celebrities and are in an "undisclosed" location away from the tormentor and all of her family members.
I remember seeing this on the news and crying over these poor little creatures. I believe some people are pure evil and try to hide behind a mental illness defense. I have NO sympathy for this woman and hopes she pays-pays-pays for what she has done!!
Today I had the privilege of spending a few hours with these dogs. They are extremely sweet, but very shy. They allowed me to love on them and talk my baby talk to them. The older one was thought to be more aggressive because he had been chained up outside most of his life and beaten regularly. I bonded with him right away. He has the look of an old man whose had a hard life. He has scars all over his face and a dent in his head. I just can't imagine how he could ever trust anyone again. But he looked at me with those eyes that pleaded for love...
The puppy just wanted to go-go-go. After an hour walk and rolling in the cool grass he calmed down. He seems to be smart. At one point I told him to "sit" and he did!!! What was meant to be the end of his life is now just the beginning..of a wonderful life, I hope. To emphasize how evil his owner was, she placed his little body in a 5 gallon steel drum before tossing in the match. Thank God the neighbors heard the screaming dogs and ran to their rescue. If they had waited for the police it would have been too late.
Their futures are still uncertain. I just hope that they can have a good life with full bellies and hands that will love them not hurt them. If you have any extra vibes for these two, please send them out. Let's keep them in our thoughts
