Dog Beaten and Choked by Man on Video Deserves Justice

Target: Matthew Hynes, DVM, Director of Michigan Veterinary Medical Association Macomb Branch

Goal: Revoke license if veterinarian is convicted of beating, slamming, and even choking his dog.

A YouTube video surfaced appearing to show a man beating, slamming, and even choking his pet dog. Unfortunately, the circumstances are nothing new. These specific allegations, however, have a troubling new twist: the suspect is a veterinarian.

This man remains publicly unnamed by authorities. The fact that he has been identified as a professional who is tasked daily with the care of animals merits concern, though. The German shepherd at the center of the allegations, as well as two other pet dogs in the suspect’s home, have been removed from the residence. And an official in the county executive’s office was apparently troubled enough by the allegations to say that “there’s no question we had to get these dogs out of there for their own protection and for their own good.”

If the allegations against him prove true, this man should not be allowed to work with or care for animals. Sign the petition below to urge Michigan’s veterinary board to evaluate this case for possible license revocation.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear Dr. Hynes,

Veterinarians by their very nature must have a calm, measured approach. Animals—and especially sick animals—are unpredictable, but they absolutely deserve humane care. A veterinarian in Macomb County has allegedly demonstrated that he does not possess the fundamental qualifications to continue practice.

This man was reportedly caught on video abusing his pet dog to the extent that the animal was removed from the premises and charges were brought against the suspect. Only when authorities went to speak with him did they discover that the suspect worked in an animal care clinic in Shelby Township. Even if the suspect is convicted, the misdemeanor nature of the charges means that he will spend a minimal amount of time, if any, in jail.

Long-term consequences need to be more stringent. Please stay apprised of this case and, if a conviction does result, ensure that this man does not practice veterinary medicine again. The animals—and the people who entrust the care of their precious family members—deserve far better.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

    Put his entire family’s name out there. The jackass filming this is a oiece of shit as well. The whole family will be very dangerous as a whole and by association. Someone we trust! Imagine it people. Law enforcement and courts need to imagine this as their pet… come on!!

    • AND YOUTUBE!!! They need to be charged! WTF?!! This is why i am not on social media. THEY ALLOW THIS. It falls under free speech. And did you know CUNTservatives are the ones who said this was free speech? Crush videos. Dog fighting videos said this falls under free speech. NOT GOING TO SAY WHAT CRUSH VIDEOS ARE.

      • I agree name this bastard and charge him, beat the shit out of him, better yet, kill his sorry ass. Take his credentials away so he can’t be near animals. Charge YouTube for not reporting this. Social media needs to be held accountable.

    • Dave Johnson says:

      You are a fucking moron if you think the guy filming this for evidence purposes is a piece of shit… fucking negative IQ from you goddamn idiots

  3. Revoke his license and prosecute to the full extent of the law. Humans will be the logical progression for this abuser. Stop him now before it’s too late.

  4. This man should never own or work with animals EVER again. What does an animal do to deserve this action? Absolutely absurd!

  5. Haven’t seen the video, but just the picture says it all !!!! This DVM needs to be exposed and lose his license ! He should NEVER be around animals again. HE OF ALL PEOPLE KNOWS BETTER !! HE SHOULD BE PUNISHED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT !!

  6. Why don’t the open this guy’s name on public?! This piece of shit must be punished publicly!

  7. someone needs to find this scum bag and deliver REAL Justice – the courts are a JOKE – nothing ever happens.

  8. Fuck this murderer before shooting him!!!

  9. Jacqueline O'Connor says:

    Nasty piece of scum!! I hope he rots in hell the disgusting cruel bastard!!!

  10. WHY IS THIS MUTANT STRIPPED OF HIS LICENCE AND IN PRISON??? WHY THE HELL DO WE FIGHT TO PASS LAWS TO PUNISH ANIMAL ABUSERS AND THEN WE HAVE TO SIGN ENDLESS PETITIONS AGAINST ABUSERS, ONLY TO HAVE THESE MUTANTS GET LITTLE OR NO PUNISHMENT?????

  11. Pulled from other news organizations
    Here is the scum dog abuser information:

    Wayne Gilchrist
    Companion Animal Care Clinic, Gilchrist is a vet at the Shelby Township office.
    MACOMB COUNTY, Michigan

    • Now we have this fuckers name, and also presumably the bastards filming him, I just hope that someone could have the guts to burn the pieces of shit out of their house or whatever they live in and teach the ‘sikko’s a lesson they would never forget!
      Better still, discreetly erase the arseholes permanently!!

  12. WE KNOW WHAT REAL “JUSTICE” WOULD BE HERE, BUT THESE MUTANTS JUST WALK BECAUSE OFFICIALS ARE TOO LAZY OR TOO COMPLACENT TO EVEN AGRESSIVELY PROSECUTE. DISGRACE!!!!!!!

  13. Once again we’re sickened to see this poor animal suffering at the hands of this mutant, and continue to be sickened and outraged because we know this non-human will not receive anything like the punishment this crime should carry. WHEN will Animal Protection Laws actually be applied??????? WHEN will demand that those entrusted to protect animals do their fucking jobs????

  14. Kat Gonzalez says:

    These so called humans need to go to prison for at least 20 years.

  15. Prosecute the scum. Name him that people never employ him and can report him to authorities if near animals. Get the punk who is taking the video too. Cowards torturing and beating this dog needs harsh punishment. He needs to be put in lifetime paralysis to remind him everyday the suffering he put this dog through and to stop this pos forever. Accomplice too. Courts don’t give out what these brutalizers deserve. Give them pain and suffering for their horrible torture.

    The evil SOB’s name is Wayne Albert Gilchrist and he was only charged with a misdemeanor! What moron did not charge him with a felony?? That looks to be prosecutor Peter Lucido and he said that the sheriff’s office didn’t request a felony charge. Who in the hell is standing up for these innocent animals if not the sheriff to start with and why didn’t the prosecutor go for the felony charge all by himself??? If these states don’t have the backbone to bring true justice for these innocent animals, I can do it! His practice is Companion Animal Care Clinic on Van Dyke Avenue in Shelby Township, MI. DO NOT TAKE YOUR ANIMALS TO THIS EVIL MAN!

  17. O hope someone finds him and lets him have it…but 100 time worse …

  18. Stacy Tuttle says:

    This pos needs to be locked away for life..
    Or shot in the head and put out of our misery..
    Along with others in the household who never stood up for those poor helpless dogs!!
    Do not allow this nasty abuser ever around any animals again!

  19. There is no possible way this individual can be trusted with alone with any animal ever again. Whatever any counter argument could possibly be, look at that picture! He has a dog pinned and is literally choking his own dog! There can be no justification for that! There is no minimizing that in any way.
    Everyone gets stressed and frustrated.
    Few strangle animals.Animals at vet offices are often stressed, uncooperative, difficult, sometimes even bite doctors. He cannot be trusted with drugs, chemicals, or scalpels to do as he pleases. Please, please take his license. And ban him from any further ownership or unsupervised interaction with animals.

    What a total scum-bag! Throw his ass in prison!
