Target: Mr. Keith Blackwood, District Attorney of Mobile County, Alabama, United States
Goal: Demand the maximum penalty for a man who allegedly drowned his dog at a beach.
At a beach in Dauphin Island, Alabama, witnesses reported that a man drowned his golden Labrador retriever in the surf. According to eyewitness statements provided to the police, the suspect submerged the dog underwater for approximately three minutes, claiming it had fleas. This appalling act of reported cruelty has shocked and appalled beachgoers and animal lovers alike.
Two witnesses who observed the apparently tragic event confronted the owner and immediately called 911 to report the incident. The Dauphin Island Police Department responded to the distress call, arresting Shawn Taulbee, a resident of Theodore, Alabama, on charges of first-degree cruelty to a dog, a felony offense.
The alleged drowning of a defenseless dog is an egregious violation of ethical principles and reflects a complete disregard for the welfare and dignity of animals. Such acts of extreme cruelty cannot be tolerated within any civilized society and must be met with swift and decisive action. Demand action now.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Mr. Keith Blackwood,
We are writing to express our profound outrage and concern regarding a recent reported incident of animal cruelty that occurred at Dauphin Island, Alabama. The alleged drowning of a golden Labrador retriever by its owner at the beach has deeply disturbed us and demands swift and decisive action.
The intentional drowning of a defenseless dog, as alleged, is a severe violation of ethical principles and a gross abuse of an animal’s right to life. It is imperative that the suspect faces the full weight of the law and receives the maximum penalty if he is found guilty of this act of cruelty.
By prosecuting the suspect to the fullest extent of the law, you will send a clear message that acts of animal cruelty will not be tolerated within Mobile County or the state of Alabama. It is our collective responsibility to protect the welfare and rights of animals and to hold those who harm them accountable for their actions.
We respectfully urge you to prioritize this case and seek justice for the innocent dog who tragically lost its life. We believe that by taking decisive action, you will reinforce the values of compassion and respect for all living beings within our community.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

How can anyone be so stupid as to comet this crime due to fleas? There are ads on TV all the time about flea medications. If this man had cared he could have visited a shelter for help. Other people may have adopted this dog but no … this man had to murder the dog. If this man is so lame how does he turn on a stove or get water from the tap? The action of this man is reprehensible. He should not be allowed around animals for the rest of his life as he does not comprehend how to treat other living beings.
So in Alabama the proper way to remove lice or fleas is to hold the victim under water until they drown and then claim you didn’t know this would end with the victim dead? No one is that stupid, this was a deliberate act of animal cruelty resulting in death and a federal offense. What if a child he knows comes down with head lice, is he going to drown them too? Fine, jail, lifetime ban from being within a 1,000 yards of animals or children.This is a dangerous, arrogant and evil person, remove him from society now.
C’mon!
That was his excuse to get rid of the poor dog! He should already be in jail for his crime.
Yes, they are that stupid! Especially the majority of people who live in the Southern United states! This Is How They think about animals. And these are the ones, the good christians, that support misogynistic, cheating, lying, racist Donald tRump. There’s very little gray matter when it comes to the south!
Strongly and forcefully said. And oh, so true!
First of all not a good time to bring politics into this. Donald Trump is 1000 times better man than Your current president. You better stop and think about that. Fauci is right in there with your current president. Remember the beagles? If you don’t know look it up.

Give those pests the same treatment. Drown that brainless bitch. That kind mort you destroy!!!
Unbelievable and unforgiveable!
Instigation of the death penalty is essential to be performed on all animal abusers globally.
Hold the bastard with a rock tied to his neck for about 10 good minutes and forget about him …
I think the saddest part about this is that labs love water and this poor dog was so happy to be at the beach and trying to have fun and being heartlessly murdered by owner is just beyond cruel, evil and shocking!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just CANNOT even fathom or comprehend WHAT is wrong with people to go this far and take such a beautiful, God given life!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO SAD!!!!!!!!!!!!! This scumbag NEEDS TO ROT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maximum penalty : throw him at night in the middle of the ocean and let him swim back to shore by himself
The person who dictated that law is a great ignorant and those who approved it even more so — I thought that the judges were qualified, fair people who would study the pros and cons well before giving their approval.
Remove that piece of scum from society
The sooner the better!
you mr derserve to be treated the same way you are worse than fleas, how stupid are you and self absorbed pce of crap .
This is not the way to treat an animal for fleas. If he is found guilty he should be punished to the fullest extent of the law for drowning his poor dog. Owners are supposed to care for their pets not abuse, torture or neglect them.
I totally agree with Edgar H. Zamalloa
“Maximum penalty : throw him at night in the middle of the ocean and let him swim back to shore by himself” asap!!! Must be severely punished this kind of Evil !!!
Who’s the animal? “Stupid is as stupid does”. Show the idiot how it feels!!!
This guy should get the chair to rid him of fleas. A sweet and gentle loving dog to suffer a death like this is heartbreaking.
It seemed that he just wanted to kill his dog. So sad.
THIS PERSON IS GARBAGE WRAPPED IN SKIN
SPINELESS INDIVIDUAL WHO IS A DISGRACE TO HUMAN KIND.
DEFINATELY A COWARD AND GUTLESS DEFINATELY NOT A MAN TO DO SUCH A HEINOUS ACT.
DEFINATELY DOES NOT DESERVE TO BREATHE THE SAME AIR.
PUT HIM IN JAIL WITH AN ANIMAL LOVER AND THROW THE KEY.
USELESS HUMAN BEING.
Hope the worthless bastard gets hung by his small dong for a slow death.
Shawn Taulbee, This Dumb sack of 💩 needs to be taught a valuable life changing lesson here 👈
Yeh sure,
The bastard needs a ‘’life changing’ lesson all right!
From being alive to being DEAD!
Shawn Taulbee, This Dumb sack of 💩 Must be taught a valuable life changing lesson here!
Shawn Taulbee, put a fork in this Sack of 💩!
I read about this right after it happened – and I’d love to find that evil son of a bitch and beat him with a Karma bat. Why did no one stop him? My God what is wrong with people that they can do this to innocent dogs? Dogs love us unconditionally and this is how we repay that love and trust? These evil bags of crap have got to start getting true justice for doing this or it’ll never stop. We have 20 acres and I find it hard to believe that anyone would come looking for that shit bag.
This person should be wrapped in a black garbage bag,double knotted and thrown in the water and let’s see if he survives that.
You are a jerk,not to mention callous person for drowning that poor dog b/c he had fleas..what a psycho,throw the book at him and a harsh fine and jail time
