How can someone be so cruel as to pick up a living thing and smash it against a wall?!
Add your name if you want to make sure that people who hurt and torture animals get the punishment they deserve!
"A Gwinnett County woman was arrested Tuesday after video of her abusing her dog on her apartment balcony was shared with police by the apartment building's staff.
"Ashten Nicole Goeckel, 30, was arrested and charged with animal cruelty after she told responding officers she lost her temper with her dog, Duluth police spokesman Officer Ted Sadowski said. A witness who works for Goeckel's apartment complex was able to record video of her actions and called authorities.
"The video shows Goeckel scolding the 18-month-old female dog, which is at first blocked from view by a kennel crate. Goeckel can be seen hitting the dog with her shoe, then glancing around from her position on the balcony.
"At the end of the video, she picks the dog up by the neck and swings her repeatedly into the wall before leaving her on the ground, glancing around again, and going back inside." reported AJC.
Imagine how much that poor dog suffered...
And for what? Just because this moron couldn't control her temper. What a pathetic excuse!
Cruelty like this cannot be condoned in any way.
Senator Bernie Sanders has been a long-term advocate for animal rights, and has co-sponsored numerous pieces of legislation to protect endangered species, as well as to combat animal cruelty.
That's why we're asking him to lead a movement in Congress that would impose strict, nationwide punishments on people who deliberately harm animals.
Don't you want to protect defenseless animals from abusers like Goeckel?
Then add your name to ask Bernie Sanders to take charge of this issue and impose strict punishments on animal abusers!
