GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- A Gainesville man is charged with animal cruelty after authorities said he bit his Jack Russell terrier as punishment.

Mount Lee Lacy, 21, told officers he bit his dog, Lady, because she had defecated in the house and that he routinely bit her as punishment.

Police said the dog was cowering in the back of her crate when they found her. The dog had a bloody left front paw from the bite.

Authorities were called to Lacy's apartment on Saturday after receiving a concerned phone call from his girlfriend's mother.

Lacy is charged with felony animal cruelty and resisting arrest without violence. He is in jail with bond set at $25,000.

He should have bit hinmself. If the dog craps the house it's the owners fault for not meeting the basic needs of the animal.

Damn, I sometimes wish we still held public floggings.

This is obviously another case of a girlfriend's meddling mother. Did she learn of it by eavesdropping on her daughter's phone conversation? Lacy should sue her </sarcasm off>.

Animals are the entry level victims of future child abusers and murderers.
