Five Puppies Reportedly Buried Alive in Backyard Deserve Justice

Target: Bruce Bartlett, State Attorney, 6th Judicial Circuit, Florida

Goal: Ensure just punishment for the individuals accused of abandonment and cruelty towards 16 dogs, including five buried alive.

A deeply troubling case has emerged in Largo, FL, where a couple reportedly abandoned 11 dogs in a park and buried five sick puppies in their backyard. Mary Anne Halahuni Gamble and Fred Gamble were arrested on multiple counts of felony animal cruelty after it was allegedly discovered that they were illegally breeding Shiba Inu puppies and neglecting their health. Five of the puppies were said to have been buried alive in their yard.

Upon further investigation, police also linked the Gambles to the dogs found in nearby Taylor Park, all of whom were diagnosed with parvovirus, a severe illness that can be fatal. It has been alleged that the couple sold puppies when they were already ill, leading to unnecessary suffering and even death for some of these innocent animals. Pawlicious Poochie Pet Rescue has stepped in to assist the surviving dogs, yet this only highlights the urgent need for stricter punishment for animal cruelty cases. The severity of the alleged wrongdoing necessitates a decisive response from the legal system.

It is essential to send a clear message that such cruelty will not be tolerated, and that those who engage in such reprehensible actions will face appropriate consequences. Demand the State Attorney’s Office of Pinellas County pursue the maximum penalties available under the law against the Gambles.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear Mr. Bartlett,

The recent case involving Mary Anne Halahuni Gamble and Fred Gamble reveals a profoundly disturbing example of alleged animal cruelty in our community. Reports indicate that the couple abandoned 11 dogs in a park, where they were later found suffering from parvovirus, a serious illness that necessitates urgent medical care. Even more alarmingly, it has been alleged that they buried alive five other puppies in their backyard.

We urge your office to ensure that Mary Anne Halahuni Gamble and Fred Gamble face the fullest extent of the law. Justice must be served, not only for the sake of the allegedly suffering puppies but also to deter similar acts of cruelty in the future.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]
