Gov. Ron DeSantis announced animal cruelty charges against the owner who tied their dog to a pole in the Tampa area before Hurricane Milton.

State Attorney Suzy Lopez, a De Santis appointee, is bringing the charges.

“You don’t just tie up a dog and have them out there for a storm. Totally unacceptable, and we’re going to hold you accountable,” Gov. De Santis said.
“[We are] now pursuing animal cruelty charges against the individual.”
“We said you’d be held accountable, and you will be held accountable.”
I don’t know who or why anyone would do that, but unless there is an excuse, there does need to be repercussions. It’s a miracle the dog is okay.
Highway Patrol found the dog in distress. The dog will be adopted and renamed Trooper. The owners were identified, and charges will be brought. Why would they do that?

I hear all about stuff like this happening everywhere. I guess nobody thinks; because i figured it out real quick when my vet charged me thousands of dollars , then 10-dollars a pill for a simple injury. Greedy little pigs!
Well, this is why people are abandoning pets. And, Vets … I got WORK FOR YOU! I was sort of a BIG WIG in a local hospital. So, I want YOU , to work, as a NURSES AID ( about all you can do with people) then you
ll get to see all the suffering people go through that pets are spared. Nobody euthanizes Humans! You clowns gimp out so easily that you
re spoiled. You do not even know what suffering is, I want to educate You! Youll all Cry, No Shame. I have. And, then perhaps, you
ll lean empathy for humans. Someone has to do GODs work, that BUM vacated His office!People are being euthanized all the time, especially up in Canada. Allot of them are doing it because they can not get the care they deserve, that’s what free Healthcare gets you. Read the real news every now and then. As far as pets go, if you’re not willing to take care of your animals, don’t get them, they will cost you money. Leaving their dog tied up to face the hurricane on his own was torture and they deserve whatever punishment they get. I’m speaking as the owner of two St Bernard’s who has been blessed by their presence and thanks God for putting them in my life
JESUS CHRIST! I am in America. Canadians are Civilized! If you do not want Free Healthcare then you can pay for your healthcare. Try Paying Cash, Like Me, if you got a Pair that Big?
Go lay down troublemaker.
Why are you all Commies? I am writing truth and none of you can dispute truth. Are you going to cry to mommy?
We do pay cash, thank you very much. Sounds to me like you just want to be an angry person
Like I said … Better Pray.
Better pray your healthcare holds up!
