Back a few days ago, just before Milton hit Florida, some pussbag tied a dog to a fence alongside a highway. Florida Highway Patrol found the dog and rescued it from certain death.
The dog, who appears to be a bull terrier, was taken to a vet, given a checkup and transferred to the Leon County Humane Society. He has been given a new name, Trooper.
The internet did its thing and now the scumbag who abandoned the dog has been identified. During a press conference, FL governor Ron DeSantis announced the person has been taken into custody by the FHP and charged with felony animal cruelty.
According to WTSP in Tampa, Trooper is currently being fostered in the Tallahassee area. He is not currently up for adoption but the Leon county Humane Society said it will give updates when Trooper’s status changes.
