Target: Alexcia Cox, State Attorney of Palm Beach County, Florida
Goal: Pursue maximum penalties in the reported daycare beating that left a 7-month-old poodle with a broken jaw and fractured tooth.
A 7-month-old miniature poodle named Cosmo was reportedly left bleeding and disoriented after an attack inside a dog daycare. According to investigators, the puppy later presented with a fractured tooth and a right-sided mandibular fracture requiring surgeries. Staff allegedly heard a loud crash and a scream. Detectives reportedly found the dog with visible injuries and say the incident occurred when the owner was not present.
Authorities subsequently arrested the daycare’s owner on a felony animal-cruelty charge. The business was later locked by local code officials who apparently deemed it unfit for humans or animals. The puppy has reportedly recovered after extensive veterinary care, yet the suffering described is grave. Witness accounts and veterinary findings paint an alarming picture of pain, fear, and prolonged trauma.
This case demands a strong prosecutorial response that reflects the reported severity. Meaningful accountability reputedly deters future abuse and protects animals still in commercial care. Seek a felony conviction where warranted, enforce a lengthy ban on animal ownership, and require restitution and counseling. These steps are vital to prevent further harm.
PETITION LETTER:
State Attorney Cox,
We urge your office to prosecute this reported daycare-cruelty case with the utmost seriousness. A 7-month-old poodle was allegedly struck, leaving the puppy bleeding, disoriented, and later diagnosed with a fractured tooth and a broken jaw that required surgeries. Employees reportedly heard a loud crash and a scream. Detectives stated the injuries were inconsistent with accidental causes and the incident occurred when the owner was not present.
The conduct described is shocking. Commercial pet businesses must be safe, yet this puppy was apparently subjected to violence and significant pain. The facility was subsequently locked as unfit, which underscores the risk to animals and the community that trusts such businesses.
We respectfully ask you to seek the maximum penalties allowed by law upon conviction, including a long-term prohibition on animal ownership, restitution for veterinary costs, and mandated psychological evaluation and counseling. Please also coordinate with local authorities to support permanent disqualification from operating animal-related enterprises. This case can set a clear precedent that alleged cruelty in commercial settings will meet firm, appropriate consequences.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

Daycare!!!!!.. Shut them down permanently! Life time bans on animal ownership!
Felony charges no less!
Have them pay for all veterinary costs.
This is beyond horrific a doggy daycare seriously! My gosh people are supposed to trust these places just like child daycare! If you can’t handle the job quit shut it down you don’t take it out on an innocent animal especially one so tiny! Whoever did this needs an extensive serious mental health evaluation! This whole place should be investigated permanently shut down heavy fines restitution to the pet owner lifelong free veterinary care since this poor pup will suffer more and more the older it gets more that likely resulting in eating mush for food once arthritis and more pain sets into the Jaw. Poor pup I hope everything works out but I highly doubt it too much damage was done. God bless you lil one sending get well hugs with lots of love!
Supposed to be care, this monster should be made to pay for this poor pups vet bills for rest of pups life aswell as locked up for a very long time. If it was up to me it would have same done to it and more.Hope this freaks life is truly ruined after this.
And this is why I say if you cannot take care of your pet don’t get one. I have had a lot of pets over my lifetime and not one went to day care
Even When I had a full time job. When they were young I accepted that there would be accidents, when they were older I got up early and took them on a long walk before leaving them and they were first on my list of things to do when I got home.
I agree one hundred percent Kerry. Our pets rely on us to keep them safe and I cannot stand people who just hand over their defenceless animals to strangers. As far as I am concerned these lazy, uncaring and irresponsible folk should be regarded as complicit in the pets injuries and should be treated as such. No sympathy for them at all.
“lengthy ban”? A LIFETIME BAN! Also, the POS needs to pay ALL medical and care costs. Poor Cosmo. He didn’t deserve this abuse and pain.
Absolutely No Tolerance Towards Animal ABUSERS N CRUELTY. An eye for an eye fits this crime n should be the punishment. Paws Matter 🐾
I would quite happily return the injury to this demon. If I lived near this stinking, filthy, disgusting bag of rotting pus I would be making plans to shatter their jaw and a few more bones. While they were being treated for their substantial injuries I would destroy their home so that on their return they would have no where to slink back into their cess pit hole. These insane maniacs need to be punished vigilante style
