If it was my little buddy he did that to, he would.
I’d be sitting in a cell for a long while if someone intentionally hurt my only pal who was given as a gift while i was still in the hospital and kept me company many years as I healed.
You bet he would suffer. More than he ever dreamed.
If I ever find out who abused my pups before the were given to the local shelter and I adopted them, well, they would never find the body...
I’d volunteer to help you.
I feel the same as you about pets. They’re one of God’s great gifts to human kind. Anyone I caught intentionally harming one would suffer my wrath and it would be horrific. Afterwards, no matter my fate I would sleep well at night knowing I did the right thing.
