animal cruelty

The dog was bleeding from its throat and mouth, and when it saw officers, it began wagging its tail even though it was badly hurt.

The property owner then set up a trail camera to watch for any unusual activity.

Animal control officers began by removing six to eight dogs from a bedroom.

Officers also found a red dog collar in the blood and a dead guinea pig in a cage.

The animals' owner later took them to a veterinarian for evaluation.

The house had dirt, debris, animal feces, litter scattered throughout.

Winter added that evidence was recovered from the scene.

A man who killed the family dog in front is his children was sentenced Friday in Laramie County District Court to 18 to 36 months in prison.

The owner of the dog told officers she had been watering her lawn when she heard her dog, Smokey, barking.

The 20 dogs were removed from Virgilio's home in August after an animal control officer noticed the dogs suffering from dehydration, malnutrition and other ailments.

Owners say the dog has a good chance of survival if they can raise enough money for treatment.

This has to be the inner city version of "Running with the Bulls." Certainly makes you mad, but right from the jump the bull nails him one pretty good.
