Target: Pearland Police Chief Randy Garner
Goal: Find person who locked dog’s mouth shut with plastic tie.
A dog was found in a church parking lot with a plastic tie wrapped so tightly around his muzzle that his teeth and tongue were visible from outside his mouth. Fortunately, a good Samaritan found the dog, named Nicholas, and brought him home.
“You could see his teeth, his tongue everything from the outside of his mouth,” said Kourtney Crenshaw, programs manager for Houston PetSet. “That’s how bad the wounds around his muzzle were.”
“He seemed kind of depressed and when you would touch him or pet him he would act a little scared,” Crenshaw added.
The original rescuer removed the plastic tie from around Nicholas’ snout, but became alarmed when his condition did not improve. At this point, the rescuer called a local pet rescue agency which came to the aid.
Nicolas’ wounds were infected and “he wasn’t able to eat very much and he wasn’t able to get food into his mouth, he probably had weeks [to live] at the most,” PetSet Co-President Tena Lundquist Faust said. “I was heartbroken. I can not imagine the pain that dog had endured and the suffering.”
While Nicolas is now on the road to recovery, the person responsible for his nightmarish condition is still on the loose.

While Nicolas is now on the road to recovery, the person responsible for his nightmarish condition is still on the loose. We are asking that you devote all resources necessary to find and arrest the person responsible for abusing Nicolas.
Sincerely,

FIND THAT MONSTER AND RUN THEM OVER
There should be a new law for no walking after accused waiting for trial they need to be take in on the spot, no waiting for a second offense, these abusers are getting away with up to 11 counts of abuse with no actions taken this must change
no bail, no wiping record clean , taken out at first offense
(this was horrific )
This atrocious behaviour needs to be addressed on the highest level. This individual needs to be held accountable for his inhumane action. So, it is vital we find this person and give him the harshest penalty. Not just a slap on the wrist and a weak promise that he will never do this again. It is clear this person is violent and enjoys the act of mutilating innocent and powerless beings.
