A 270-pound ironworker was found guilty of aggravated animal cruelty after beating a five-month-old Dachshund puppy, “breaking six of his tiny ribs and damaging his lungs and liver,” according to the News. Reportedly, the calico-colored pup named Junior was “insubordinate” during a bath, so 25-year-old Dudley Ramsay “smashed” it against the tub. Hours later he called doctors but the dog couldn’t be saved. Ramsay later disclosed that another dachshund puppy named Viola had died in his care. In that case he was found not guilty of killing the dog but convicted of felony animal cruelty. "It's disturbing, especially because of the age of the dog and the breed of the dog," the ASPCA'S Joseph Pentangelo said of the earlier incident.
