Ok... if you should know I'm a big animal lover, and if you hurt them or do anything wrong with them, expect me to do something about it! RWAR!

I went to work today and across from my job is a house and on the porch was a dog who was out side. Her name (I later found out) was Dolly. I'm not sure what type of dog she is, but she was really cute. Now I could hear her barking and at first I thought it was cus she was outside. After an hour I look outside and her bark is getting more panicky (you can tell cus it started to have a whine/cry to it) and I could see her pawing at the door. I walked over and looked around and saw that she had no food or water outside and nothing to sleep on which got me ticked off.

I looked and saw that there was no one home, so I called the ASPCA. The woman who answered said someone would call me back, but never did. Another hour passes by and its getting colder outside and Dolly was still barking and carrying on. One of the customers I had mentioned that the dog (Dolly) has been carrying on since at least 1pm which got me PISSED! How could you treat an animal like that? Leave her outside with no water, food or anything to sleep on and also leave her outside in the cold (the temp was around 40 or so, high of 50's).

That did it for me. I called Red Bank police and reported a case of animal cruelty (thanks to my internet sluthing) and told them excatly what was going on. A few minutes later the police came by and observed the situation and told me that if they couldn't get in touch with the owner, that they would call the ASPCA. Well they couldn't so the ASPCA comes around and take Dolly away, leaving a notice on the door saying that they could contact the ASPCA of Eatontown the next business day in regards to Dolly being taken away.

Well... around 10ish, I got a call from the guy at the ASPCA (cus I was concerned about the dog and asked the guy to let me know what was going on when he could) and he told me that Dolly was doing well. She was in a kennel with food and water and that there were no outward signs of abuse. He also told me that she would be staying with them until the owners were investigated for animal cruelty and from what he said, they could be issued a fine or a court summons (which I hope they do ) and that if she was abused, that they would take her away and keep her at the kennel (which thankfully is a no-kill shelter).

I hope the best for Dolly and hope that everyone on GA does the right thing... if you suspect a case of animal cruelty contact your local ASPCA and ask to speak with an animal cruelty officer and tell him all of the details of the situation and don't leave anything out. If it's an emergancy, like you see someone beating or hurting an animal in anyway call the police right away!
