Tw: Animal Abuse, I Need Help Dealing With Neighbor And Helping Puppy.

Card image cap

Hello, I have a neighbor (20-35?6ft tall) who has a pit bull puppy about a foot and a half tall. I never bat an eye until one night I was bringing groceries in and I heard HEAVY, heavy hits and the man yelling “come on! Come on!” all followed by horrible cries from the puppy. I couldn’t help but scream “HEY!” To get him to stop as soon as possible. Here’s how the rest of that convo went. “What?” “Stop. That’s… scary?” “I can’t see you, who are you?” “Just stop, please” “Oh okay I’m sorry”

They keep the dog chained up on the front porch over about 20 stairs so no grass access, and I’ve never seen them take him for walks, only walked over to the tiny patch of yard next to the house on a leash.

This morning I had my window open and I woke up to the sound of the dog getting beaten again. I told myself if I heard it again I’d figure out how to do something about this, should I slip a corporate sounding threat of calling the cops into their mailbox? I don’t want to call animal control because I’d hate for the poor thing to get euthanized, especially if he had injuries (by the sound of this morning there’s no chance he doesn’t.) PLEASE help. Thank you.
