Description
ABUSED DOG! This poor doggie was tied to a cinder block on a 2-foot leash without food or water. At least these A-Hole owners left a Boom Box on to keep him company, that is until, the batteries ran out after a few hours. This Poor Doggie Barked today Friday Oct 1st from 9AM - 6:30PM. I left for work at 7AM. My girlfriend spent all day calling various phone numbers related to animal abuse to no avail. The OPD non-emergency NEVER PICKED UP THE PHONE! On HOLD for HOURS! When I arrived home at 6:30 PM, I got my ladder out and took a heartbreaking VIDEO OF THIS SUFFERING ANIMAL. I then went to my kitchen to retrieve a knife to cut the dog loose. As I was climbing over my fence, the young son Eli (27yrs?) arrived and unhooked the dog. I cursed him out but he ignored me. His Mother Rosario Ortega owns and abuses this animal DAILY. I have been trying off/on for months to gain access to an Animal Control Officer. or anyone to hear me and help me. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO REACH ANYONE!! This Dog BARKS constantly! Is left alone for days with no food or water. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP THIS DOG AND PUNISH THESE ABUSERS! PLEAE HELP THIS DOG! Please contact me for further information and documentation.
