SIGN: Help us ensure justice for two brutally abused dogs in Florida

Recently, we were horrified by a distressing case of animal abuse in Florida. Two dogs were brutally punched with the end of a broomstick while locked in an outdoor crate. In a previous incident, one was reportedly held off the ground and beaten so violently the dog’s cries could be heard two streets away.

In video footage that first appeared on social media, two dogs are confined to a crate on a porch in the Florida heat. One dog appears to be looking fearfully at the man standing over them. The man is gripping a broomstick with both hands. The man then repeatedly shoves the broomstick handle into the dogs. The dogs are struck over and over as they cry in despair.

Sadly, this is not the only instance of these dogs being harmed, according to the police.

A separate video, dated several weeks before this incident, appears to show the man striking a defenceless dog with a closed fist at least ten times. The helpless animal yelps in pain while suffering blow after relentless blow. The cries could be heard from over two streets away.

The man has been arrested and charged with two counts of third-degree animal cruelty with intent to injure or kill. The dogs are now in the care of Miami-Dade Animal Services. However, we must ensure that justice is served, and such cruelty is never repeated.

No animal deserves to be treated with such brutality — especially at the hands of their guardian.

Will you sign our petition to ensure justice for these abused dogs? We are calling on the Miami-Dade District Attorney to prosecute this case to the fullest extent of the law. This includes demanding psychological counselling for the perpetrator and a prohibition on ever again having animals.

By signing our petition, you can help ensure that no animal can ever be harmed by this suspect again. Together, we can make a difference and send a strong message that animal cruelty will not be tolerated.
