What the hell is wrong with people?

Sick People

I will be praying that each member of the immediate family of the savage who did this acquires terminal cancer and suffers right to the end

I completely understand your anger Sargenthartman, Savage is being kind. I wouldn't wish death or harm to any but sure do hope there is a special place in hell for them.

These people walk amongst us..Scary, isn't it??

APP on line is saying the guy who "found" the dog is under arrest. He may be responsible for the dogs condition.

Oh yes, I want to go to Freehold for the hanging!

Jools

My heart aches for this poor innocent creature left to die. Dogs are man's best friend as normal loving people are aware. The SOB responsible for it's abuse must be punished to the fullest extend of the law and incarcerated. His name must appear on a newly created Animal Abuse website as all criminals should.

Go Buddy!!!! You and your team do A Great Job!!! Thanks!

Whatever punishment they receive, it will not be enough!! Shame on them !!

May the couple who did this rot in hell !!

those two should be covered in feces and urine, be malnourished and tied up in a plastic bag and left on the side of a deserted road.

Does he need a home?

This is heart breaking... my brother works at the vet he was taken to and told me all about it.He was very upset..the first thing I told him to do was bring him home..It discust me that people can do this to a living creature.Just sad.

This is sick how can someone do this to a poor defenseless animal....

I pray that these jerks rot in prison for a long time

How do people like this get their hands on dogs? It's a disgrace!!!

I just want to love this dog and make him feel better and happy. I can't take the sad look or bear how long that gentle creature suffered alone like that.

It should have been that couple in the garbage bag & not that sweet innocent dog!! I hope that couple gets punished to the fullest extent!!!

You all sound like a little "jailhouse justice" would make you feel better.

May their lives from this day forward leave them always on the side of the road covered in their own feces for all eternity. .

Why aren't the penalties for hurting and abusing animals the same as they are for hurting and abusing human beings?

Animals like you should not even think of moving in brick. If you want to move to brick RESPECT our town. Our children do not need to be talking about things like this. This message relates to any RACE.

don't let these despicable unhumans plea bargain away the charges...they should get max jail time for these charges BOTH of these losers...then aft that give them 500 hours of SUPERVISED commuinty service at the local humane society...

How can people be so cruel ?

I say lock these scumbags in a cage outside. Bread and water until death from exposure.

Put them both in jail. My understanding is the wife is a teacher. What a scary thought. How do you do something like this to a poor defenseless creature. I hope he pulls thru and finds a loving family. They are trash

I think this is pathetic how someone could do this to a dog. Wall Patch you are always on top osf stories. Kudos

I shutter to think such Monsters are walking among us in the light of day! My wish is for this gentle dog to find a kind and loving home to live out his life in peace and contentment. With gratitude for all those involved with the rescue, treatment, and dedication to restore the broken spirit, heart, and health of a trusting creature that only offers us love and devotion.

to answer patricia miller's question the reason animals have very few protections is because they are only protected under the feeble agricultural laws. the penal laws dont apply although they need to. believe it or not this keith and shauna morgan who did this to the dog not only claimed they found it to collect the $500 reward for treating the dog horribly for years but morgan was actually on the ch 62 news acting like a hero for finding his own dog. they have another dog in their home that should have been removed already from their 306 sawmill ave , brick home. the max a judge can give them is 6 months but i,m willing to bet that this is yet just another judge who will send them home with a $100 fine. does anyone know the name of the prosecutor in this case? everyone should be sending him letters asking for the max.

I hope you evil people get what you deserve!!!

I'm happy to hear he's improving. Thanks for the update.

I blame it on Bricktucky.

Thank you Saint Francis......

God Bless this poor little guy. And the hospital and people taking care of him. If he needs a home I'd take him.

My family just lost our beloved doggy Daisy to liver failure. We tried to save her n spent what we could knowing she may not make it. I wonder if these foks just didin't have the money to treat the pet n tried this to get help or did they just not care? Very sad when your beloved pet gets sick. I pray for all involved...

Greg and family....so sorry for the loss of your Daisy. I am sure she knows that you did everything you could for her. Unfortunately, some people wouldn't make the effort. I am a grief counselor with Pet Friends....we provide 24/7 telephone (free) counselling for folks dealing with pet loss. Call 1-800-404-PETS Take care.

To the doctors and staff tending to Morgan, Thank you for the daily updates. It is comforting to know that he is good hands and being cared for and loved by your amazing staff.

Animal cruelty is abominable. That being said, I wonder how many of the "outraged" posters think the MURDER of unborn children is O.K.?.

Maybe a public stoning at Bricks town hall.

Imagine what the inside of their house must be like. Also, the fool had the same clothes on the day he was arrested as the day he turned the poor dog in to the ASPCA. Saw Mill Road in Brick.......hmmm

These evil-loving creatures need to get at least 10 years behind bars. I'm sick of this slap-on-the-wrist punishment for animal abuse This animal abuse that is running rampant in our country MUST STOP!! What is wrong with these types of people? They actually take enjoyment out of seeing the suffering of a helpless animals.
Would they treat their child like this? Never changing a diaper? Urine burnt skin? Ear infections that the child goes deaf? That's what they did to this poor dog who wanted nothing but to be loved. Any animal you adopt is family and should be treated as such..with love, nurturing, compassion.
I am in the process of attempting to adopt Sammy and if chosen, I will give him the best home ever with my poodle of 12 years!

I hope these 2 bastards drop dead.

our laws need to be changed!!! this is horrible that a human would treat a defenseless animal like this, when will this end? Laws need to get tougher on animal abusers, not just a fine and slap on the wrist!

This is an absolute horrible cruel thing, but it seems to be going on all over. Something is wrong with people who hurt an innocent creature. My understanding , if correct is that the wife is a teacher. We do need stronger laws to protect them. I have contacted Senator Tom Kean. There is a Senate Bill S1303 they are trying to pass . I think we should all write to him. I have already done so. Pray this dog survives and finds a happy home. The people should be jailed, or as someone mentioned how about a public stone throwing . They deserve something like that.

Remember to contact. Senator Tom Kean to pass Senate bill S1303

Kathleen, what is bill S1303?

death by firing squad... it's not the bad things that need to change it's we need to rid this country of people with bad intentions. it's so discouraging to see shit like this happen and it's a slap on the wrist politics destroy us it's no longer about what's right or wrong, they won't lock em up long not because it's wrong, they don't want to lock them up because it costs us tax payers $30,000 a year to house these sick twisted people which I (A tax payer) am moreeee than willing to have my taxes raised to rid my town and my country of these disgusting human beings...thank you to all the vets. for what you do for these animals.

when are these 2 animals coming to court? would love to spit in their faces. they are truly evil and deserve everything that comes to them. by the way, where does the disgusting work as a teacher?

All of the hanging, spitting, draw and quartering, etc talk will do nothing except put these horrible people in protective custody (which we pay for). Why don't we all look into the Bill S1303, writie letters to our leaders, pray for Sammy and consider adopting an animal from a shelter. Sammy, upon recovery will no doubt have an outstanding home to be placed. There are soo many more stories that do not get the press. So many more perfectly good animals who need to give and receive love.

For Gail Sands and others . S1303 replaces Patrick' Law. Senator Tom Kean addressed this bill. It is a revision on penalties for animal cruelty. It increases with the degree of offense. It has passed Senate, but not put into law yet. I do not know how strong this bill is, but something has to help all this ugly cruelty to these defenseless animals.

Thanks Kathleen for informing me of S1303. Good Lord I do hope that Kean hears about this abuse from many of us.

I have a cocker...who has a very similar story! He was left in a crate 24hrs a day..his coat was matted with crate marks and sores all over his body..and the previous owners cut off his "cocker nub" down to NOTHING! Just a tiny bone...we found him covered in feces and urine and very malnourished as well. He also had a pinch collar on and the skin grew over it!! The owners left him on the doorstep of a neighbor...who called me immediately asking me what to do...since I'm all about RESCUE! We saw our precious Mr. Bojangles (ironically, his original name was my husband's name and i know that only because the pinch collar had a tag with only his name). I took him immediately to tinton falls animal hospital (who are some of the best people ever!!!)....and immediately our decision was made...THAT DOG IS OURS...NO MATTER THE COST! In 2006 and $4000 later...and a very long recovery...we were able to bring him to the home he LOVES today :)...It took us about a year to nurse him back to health...mentally and physically!!!! We're not sure how old he is...but they "guesstimated" that he was about 3 to 4 yrs old at the time. Mr. Bojangles is now happy, very healthy, a bed hog, never barks, shakes his entire butt when he's happy cause there is no tail to wag & just loves to be loved! WILL "SAMMI" BE PLACED FOR ADOPTION? WE WOULD ABSOLUTELY LOVE TO ADD HIM AS ANOTHER MEMBER OF MY SMALL FAMILY...Mr bojangles who thinks he's human..sammi would fit right in!

Are the owners in jail yet if not they should be..bastards..

I'm happy he's doing better.

Does he need a home? I'll take him and love him. Kathleen

This is horrofic! Sammy needs all our prayers that he is going to get his second chance in a home filled with love. I try not to feel the bitterness I feel towards these people as I know there is going to come the day when they have to face our maker and we all know where they are going!!!!!!!!!

let's put these animals in a plastic bag and let them starve!!!!!!!!!

I can see the pain in this poor dog's eyes. If he recovers, I am sure he will forgive the stupidity of the humans that put him in this condition. That is the amazing spirit of the dog & man's best friend. He will just need to learn to trust again and he will if he finds the right person with a kind touch. The laws need to be changed. Animals are considered personal property and live stock. The penalties for abuse are minimal. Have any of you been to a puppy mill lately? These are the breeders who supply the puppies to the pet stores or the people you buy your pets from on line or find in the newspapers. Unfortunately the breeder dogs both M & FM have that same sad look in their eyes as Sami and have the same horrible living conditions as Sami & most times they are 100x's worse. So when you consider getting a pet, adopt, rescue, but do not buy!!!! There are a ton of rescues out there for every kind of pet you could imagine. For every pet you buy there are multiple animals being euthanized because no one wanted them. Don't let the add in the paper or on line about the family raised, farm raised, had fed AKC registered puppy kid you. Ask to see the barn & go into it & you will see tons of dogs living in the same conditions or 100x's worse than Sami. Volunteer at a rescue in the middle of puppy mill country and see the horrors of the Puppy Mills first hand. It's an eye opener. I challenge you to research puppy mills on line and to spread the word about them.
