Target: Smith County District Attorney Jacob Putman
Goal: Prosecute owners of dog reportedly found hairless and “screaming in pain.”
A dog named Lindy was reportedly found starving, hairless, and “screaming in pain,” while being beaten by a disabled child with a stick. The parents of the child reportedly owned the dog and allowed this, along with even more horrific terrors to be inflicted upon this innocent animal.
A Good Samaritan apparently witnessed the abuse of Lindy and filed a complaint with SPCA East Texas, which immediately began an investigation. At the completion of their investigation, the SPCA, along with local police, moved to seize Lindy, as well as a 3-month-old puppy also living at the house.
Lindy was provided medical care, where it was discovered that she was also apparently suffering from both scabies mites and demodex mites. These reported infestations were so unbearably uncomfortable that Lindy scratched deep wounds throughout her body, which exposed her to secondary bacterial and yeast infections. As a result, Lindy had apparently lost all of her hair and built up thick crusts covering her body head to tail.
Although Lindy is on the slow road to recovery, her previous owners have not yet faced justice.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear District Attorney Jacob Putman,
An innocent dog named Lindy was recently rescued in your jurisdiction. A passerby apparently saw a special needs child beating Lindy with a stick while the poor creature cried out in pain.
Upon investigation, it was reportedly discovered that Lindy was severely malnourished and thoroughly infested with scabies and demodex mites. Due to these infestations, Lindy had apparently scratched wounds across her body which had resulted in secondary bacterial and yeast infections. Ultimately, Lindy appears to have lost all of her hair and thick crusts covered her body from head to tail.
While there are few details publicly available about Lindy’s former owners, if it is found that they are responsible for this terrible abuse, please see to it that they are prosecuted fully.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

That poor dog. I’m glad that he was found and now he can begin healing. People are so disgusting. Why would they do something like this to a poor creature.
Totally agree.
Human monsters
Yep. Monsters! .the parents need to be fined and never allowed to own another pet ever! To teach their child that abusing any animal is ok?? Seriously, is not ok.
And DFS needs to be involved regarding the child. Learned behavior, so I’m sure the parent(s) beat on him, plus mites and infestation on the dog????
Well said
These mutant parents are raising a monster. . . imagine this kid in future years??? If there is no REAL justice for this poor dog we can all forfeit our claim to having a soul. (WTF is it about TEXAS, and their idiot governor????)
These are human monsters. Anyone who would witness such and allow it to this innocent animal and human monsters need to be eliminated as soon as possible. God only knows the agony suffered by this poor mammal and thank God someone reported it.
Yup! This kid will probably be a serial killer. All of these scumbags need to be wiped off the planet now! That would be real justice, but this world is too lenient and stupid for that! Too much corruption and greed! Texas allows you the right to kill a stranger that walks on your property (which could be innocent), so they definitely should allow the killing of evil psychos that abuse animals!!
I’m a proud Texan, and also an animal rights activist. I’ve had guns pointed at me on hunting protests. And I can assure, this shit happens in every state in America, and every country in the world. Take a look at your own state before you start trashing mine!
What do expect from a state who elects, and allows to remain in office, a consummate moron for a governor???
Joe Biden is President and you want to bitch about the governor of Texas?
I agree with you…he doesn’t care about the health of people, so he sure as hell doesn’t care about animals. I sure hope these people are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, and held accountable for what they did. To think that they allowed a child to beat him, is just disgusting. That child is going to grow up thinking that it’s okay to treat an animal like that…this whole thing makes me sick. Dogs are “Man’s Best Friend” and it’s high time people get punished for abusing/torturing them, they offer us their unconditional love and loyalty, and this is how people treat them…ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, PROSECUTE THEM…NO MORE SLAPS ON THE WRIST!!!
These cretins must be sterilised !
These are human monsters. Anyone who would witness such and allow it to this innocent animal and human monsters need to be eliminated as soon as possible. God only knows the agony suffered by this poor mammal and thank God someone reported it.
I agree!! They all must be wiped off the planet!!!
HOW IS IT POSSIBLE MUTANTS LIKE THIS ARE ALLOWED TO LIVE AMONG US ?????? NO COINCIDENCE THIS IS ALL TOO FREQUENT IN THE SO-CALLED “GREAT STATE” of Texas. . . Look who they elected as governor.
Agree!!!!!
Human mutant monsters
I can assure you George, whatever state you reside in, this shit is happening there too!
My comment is voice activated and sadly I can’t edit it. Again they are human monsters and need to be eliminated. No more animal abuse should be tolerated just like no more child abuse. Ever that’s it… no more chances. It makes me sick. These human Monsters make me sick. The pain and suffering and Agony experienced by this poor pathetic dog is sickening.
Please see that you expedite charges to the fullest extent for the despicable sadists that allowed this to happen!!! NO LIVING THING SHOULD ENDURE SUCH ABUSE!!!
I would like them beaten too. Scum
Never enough justice is there??
Humans?? Sub species.
I am so p…Ed off
This is TexAs where there is no protection laws for innocent animals and the governing officials don’t give a shit about the animals of Texas. The subhumans who owned this poor dog will get away with the usual slap on the wrist. There is no justice for animals in this state.
Nadine, I’m sure that your state has no animal abuse! It must be so nice to live in Utopia.
Im going to throw up. I feel nothing but anguish and a deep sadness for all animals that must endure pain inflicted upon them by heartless evil monsters. The parents and kid need to be taken off the planet.
I TOTALLY AGREE!!! THEY ARE DEMONS….. JUSTICE “MUST BE SEVERE” THEY MUST BE THROWN IN PRISON…..
These cruel people have got to be enough prosecuted to the fullest extent of the laws available. We are just so disgusted with seeing these types of stories, but unfortunately there are bad people everywhere. Please join us in wanting there’s people to pay for what they have done.
The pos parents and there turd kid, must be taught a valuable lesson here!
Typical Texas. Don’t expect any different from morons in this state that should be seceded from the union, have absolutely no regard for their domesticated animals or humans for that matter with representatives like Greg abott and Costello, Ted commie Cruz what do you expect from these vermin!!!
Paul K, first off, thank you for calling me a moron. Believe me, we Texans would like nothing better than to secede from the total insanity of the socialist, free everything, police hating, get out of jail free, illegal alien loving, liberal states! You think we are morons, but y’all are totally insane!
News flash, this shit is going on in your state as well! There is nowhere on this earth that hasn’t seen a rise in animal abuse.
OH MY GOD!!!! THIS IS HORRRIBLE EVIL TREATMENT !!!! THOSE MONSTERS INVOLVED DESERVE THE “DEATH PENALTY” !!!! SERIAL KILLER MUST BE STOPPED!!!!
Disgusting excuses for human beings.
Should be forbidden from owning animals and be required to pay the full cost of the dog’s medical care along with additional fines and jail time.
What because the boy is disabled he & his parents think it’s ok to treat a dog this way. This child is a monster and he and his parents should never be allowed to own another animal. They all need jail time for the horrendous shape this poor dog is in. My prayers for this poor dog and the puppy that was removed. NEVER give them back to these people.
Justice for hurting animals MUST be swift. Why the delay authorities? Do what’s right!!!
Parents must face charges and that child must be taught compassion. As she wants to be treated, she must be shown the errors of her ways if the parents are too useless to show her
I hope Lindy finds a loving forever home. I am not sure the “parents” should even be allowed to keep the disabled kid. He’s going to become a mental monster at the rate they’re going with him. Even disability does not account for being cruel to animals. I hope the puppy also finds a loving home. As far as this strange “human family”, well I don’t know but I don’t think society is safe with them out there. They’re a group of idiots.
Before I started reading, I thought this happened in a third world country. But no good ole USA. Makes me ashamed!
These people should not only be prosecuted for animal abuse but should also be investigated by the Child Welfare Department. There is no excuse for treating an animal so badly and also allowing a child to be encouraged to continue such horrible abuse.
