Dog Found Starving in ‘House of Horrors’ Deserves Justice

Target: Bruce Colton, State’s Attorney for St. Lucie County, Florida

Goal: Demand that the person accused of starving and denying medical care to a dog named Nikki, leading to the amputation of Nikki’s leg, faces the maximum penalty if found guilty.

A dog named Nikki was allegedly denied medical care and starved nearly to death. She was reportedly covered in sores and missing a paw when found by police. Demand that justice is served for innocent Nikki.

“It was obviously just a house of horrors knowing that she wasn’t provided food, water, basic necessities that she needed,” stated David Lynch, the spokesman for the Humane Society of St. Lucie County. Per veterinarians, the pit mix was starved to the point where she only weighed 20 pounds and had no body fat. Her leg will have to be amputated because one of her paws was reportedly only a stub, which made it difficult for her to walk.

The dog was taken to the Humane Society of St. Lucie and given medical care. The dog’s owner, was charged with animal cruelty. Sign below and demand that Hedgepeth receive the maximum penalty by law, if convicted.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear State’s Attorney Colton,

A dog named Nikki was reportedly starved and neglected nearly to the point of death. The dog was reportedly so emaciated that her ribs showed through her skin and sores covered most of her body. We demand that justice is served for this innocent dog.

“Every day must have been a complete struggle for her just to survive,” stated Lynch. Per reports, the dog’s back paw was only a stub and infected. Veterinarians aren’t sure how her paw got to be that way or how long she had to suffer with the painful deformity.

This horrific abuse cannot go unpunished. We demand that you seek the maximum penalty in this case, if the owner is found guilty of this tragic abuse.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

    Nikki’s abuser should have one of his/her cut off with a very dull saw and starved for the rest its natural live while watching others eat in prison!

  2. Debra Ludlow says:

    I’ve said it many times before. Just give me an address and 10 minutes.

  3. What is going to happen with the little fur baby. Is there foster care lined up for her? How is it made so easy for abusers to get their hands on animals?????

  4. How is the little fur baby doing, and who will step up and lovingly take care of her? We as a country need to prevent abuse of all animals NOW. We need to be proactive.

  5. Eva Cantu says:

    PUT THAT BITCH IN PRISON FOR A LONG,LONG TIME!

  6. She is obviously a sick and twisted person to find some pleasure in starving an animal to death. This woman needs to be taken off the streets to prevent her from doing any additional harm to anyone human or pet!

  7. Tim McPherson says:

    Vacuum out that shitfucking cocksucking woman’s eardrums. Look at the poor thing’s mournful eyes. She has that resigned look on her face. I am so sad she will lose her paws but so glad she still lives. I hope she will find a good home and that the bitch, on the other hand, will find a home just as well – in a moldy prison.

  8. i do not know how someone could mistreat an animal. dogs only want to give love. i really don’t understand WTH IS WRONG WITH SOME PEOPLE!

CAN U IMAGINE THE PAIN IT HAS BEEN IN??? WHAT KIND OF PERSON COULD LOOK AT HOW SKINNY AND SICK THIS DOG WAS AND NOT HELP IT??? ONLY A MONSTER??? PUT HER UNDER THE JAIL, FINE HER A BIG FINE, (MAKE HER PAY THE VET FOR THE POOR PUPPY WHO LOST IT’S LEG) BAN HER FROM EVER HAVING OR BEING AROUND ANIMALS AS SHE IS TOO CRUEL AND IRRESPONSIBLE.

    Scum like this makes me sick and Judges that let scum like this off with just a slap on the wrist make me as sick as the abusers do. These abusers need to be punish to the fullest extent of the law.

  17. Rosslyn Osborne says:

    ! “Ye must not only have kind and merciful feelings for mankind, but ye should also exercise the utmost kindness towards every living creature.
    The physical sensibilities and instincts are common to animal and man.
    Man is, however, negligent of this reality and imagines that sensibility is peculiar to mankind, therefore he practices cruelty to the animal…..
    In reality what difference is there in physical sensations! Sensibility is the same whether you harm man or animal: there is no difference. Nay, rather, cruelty to the animal is more painful because man has a tongue and he sighs, complains and groans when he receives an injury and complains to the government and the government protects him from cruelty; but the poor animal cannot speak, it can neither show its suffering nor is it able to appeal to the government.
    If it is harmed a thousand times by man it is not able to defend itself in words nor can it seek justice or retaliate…..
    Therefore one must be very considerate towards animals and show greater kindness to them than to man…. Man is generally sinful and the animal is innocent; unquestionably one must be more kind and merciful to the innocent”. Baha’i Faith Writings

    Justice for Nikki. This woman should be charged, not a matter if she is charged. Subhuman trash – need real justice for POS who think they can do this, if the law does not then animal lovers who catch her will. Lock up this bitch and leave her to starve.
