ANOTHER ANIMAL CRUELTY CASE IN COBB COUNTY GEORGIA

After miraculously surviving being stuffed in a burning oven, Melody, a 20-month-old pit bull mix puppy, is recovering smoothly.   Gary Moore Jr., 25, of Cobb County, was charged with felony animal cruelty under a new statute in connection with the incident.  Moore appeared in court and asked that his bond be reduced so he could be released from jail. Detective Steve Nolan testified in court that Moore confessed to putting Melody in a hot oven, saying the puppy had reminded him of an estranged boyfriend.   “Their relationship was not going forward and at that point he grabbed the dog, placed it in the oven, closed the door and held the oven door shut for a period of a few seconds.”
Moore told the detective he released Melody when she began howling, but did not seek medical treatment for her. His roommate took her in four days later. Judge Frank Cox granted Moore a lower bond under the condition that he move in with his mother, and not live near any animals. So Moore got his bond lowered and bonded out.
If I, Tuck The Law Dog, was the Judge, I never would have lowered Moore's bond--he doesn't deserve freedom--he deserves to be put in a hot oven, let out, and refused medical treatment!   Please, please email the District Attorney, Cobb County, Georgia;  the Solicitor General of Cobb County, Georgia,  letting them know you are keeping an eye on this case and to make sure this 25-year old poor excuse for a human being, if found guilty,  gets the maximum punishment.   
I feel so much pain and hurt for little Melody--I wish you a speedy recovery, my friend.
**Moore has not been found guilty  nor convicted of any crime at this time, and has only been charged.

Georgia Law (Dog) - The Musings of a Legal Beagle: HOT DOGS and HOT TIMES IN THE SUMMER

HOT DOGS and HOT TIMES IN THE SUMMER

It's been in the 90's here in the south for the past few days.  So once again, it's time for that annual warning to not leave your dog (or any other animal) in a parked car, even with the windows cracked open.  Even when the temperature is hovering around 80 degrees, a vehicle's inside temperature can rise to 120 degrees in a few minutes.  You humans know that in warm weather it can get very hot and stuffy in a parked car even with all the windows rolled down!  Dogs are susceptible to heat stroke, and heat stroke can lead to brain damage and death.   Make sure your dog has lots of fresh water during the summer.   Keep my buddies out of the sun when it is especially hot.  Dogs can get sunburned, too.    Ask your vet about what kind of sunblock or lotion can be used on a dog's nose and ears.  And remember, the pavement can get very, very hot, which can burn the pads of a dogs foot.  So be careful.  My Mom feels the pavement with her hands, and if it feels too hot, she carries me (that doesn't work with you big dogs) or we take a different route, or try to walk on the grass.  Avoid too much exercise in the hot weather.  If you go for walks, bring a small water bottle with you.  My Mom carries
small bottles of water, a bowl, and a dropper everywhere we go.  Be every mindful that intentionally leaving a dog in a parked car in the hot weather resulting in a significant rise in the vehicles interior temperature such that physical damage or death is caused to the dog, can be result in the owner or whoever caused the situation, to be arrested and convicted for animal cruelty.  Take care of my buddies, and have a safe and fun summer, ya'll.
