When 15-month-old Caitlyn, a chocolate Staffordshire bull terrier mix, was found in Charleston County, S.C., last week, there was a thin strip of electrical tape wrapped tightly around her muzzle. The vise was so tight for so long up to 48 hours that it trapped her tongue between her teeth, cutting off the blood flow.
I have a dog thats here at my house that I found and the dogs mouth is taped shut with electrical tape, tongue hanging out its mouth, bleeding, and his tongue is completely black, a 911 caller said, according to ABC affiliate WCIV. I just dont know what to do.
The Charleston Animal Societys Facebook post documenting Caitlyns plight with a shocking photo spread far and wide. Sympathizers used the hashtag #Justice4Caitlyn to help spread the word in an effort to find the person responsible for her mistreatment, which the Animal Societys director of anti-cruelty called the most malicious case of animal abuse he has ever seen.
To leave this dog in pain, unable to eat or drink, and to now leave her in the position where her life is at stake because she may lose her tongue is heartbreaking, Aldwin Roman said in a statement.
On Monday, North Charleston police arrested 41-year-old William Leonard Dodson on a felony charge of animal torture.
His bail was set Tuesday at $50,000, according to Charleston County Circuit Court records. I dont think $50,000 really matched the pain and suffering Caitlyn has had to go through, the Animal Societys Roman said after the hearing, according to the Post and Courier. She is healing, but the damage has been done.
The newspaper reported that Charleston County Magistrate Priscilla Baldwin said another dog would be removed from Dodsons house. Dodson can not have [possession] of any animals, court...

Absolutely sickening. Wouldn’t bother me if the guy was taken out and shot.
OMG! I’ve never seen anything to equal this! It’s terrible!
Prayers that the pup recovers.
Take that human waste product out back and string 'im up. Let him dangle for a good while, oh, say 48 hours...
then break his damn neck. He's using up perfectly good oxygen.
Sorry,but shooting is much too humane.I’d love to go to work on this m’fer
Yeah, Dodson should have his mouth taped up.
Super glue his ass.
The perp. He looks the part.
shows a demented hateful mind.....if he can do that to a dog, think what he can do to a little kid...
I wouldn’t waste my time with this moron.
Take him out 2mi and dump him in the Ocean.
all he needed was a job. /s
piece of trash.
I hate to see something like that.
Maybe inmates see guys like this like child molesters and he’ll get a 6’5” 300 lb cellmate with a coke-can c***.
He “discovered” he can control a dog.
His new found power has found him to be quite a despicable human.
Some people are to damn stupid to be walking around.
SC is not gonna let this walk.
The moron is going to prison. The judge will have words to say.
No use for a person who would do that. I’d happily beat them to death with an axe handle.
If he didn’t want the dog he shoulda just killed it humanely
Pitiful
Is that real?
