As an owner of a dog who was abused as a puppy, I agree that the penalty for animal cruelty laws, especially when there are surviving victims, should be increased.
My dog still suffers after-effects of the (injuries) she incurred over three years ago. She still is fearful and shakes violently when approached by strangers or men.
