"Captain of the pooch, caught anchoring his mate to a post 'fore the storm, be called to dance with the law!"
2024-10-15
Arrr! The scallywag who left his pooch tied to a post in a tempest be caught, and mayhaps he’ll be walkin’ the plank fer cruelty to critters, say the landlubbers in charge! Aye, it be a right stormy mess!
Ahoy, mateys! Gather 'round as I spin ye a yarn 'bout a scurvy knave named Giovan' Aldama Garcia, who left his poor beastie, a bull terrier named Jumbo, tied to a fence while the tempest known as Hurricane Milton bore down upon Florida seas. Aye, he claimed he couldn't find a soul to take the pup whilst he made a hasty retreat to Georgia, leaving the poor critter to face the wrath of Mother Nature alone!Now, the law be hot on his heels, for he’s been charged with the foul crime of aggravated animal cruelty. The mighty State Attorney, Suzy Lopez, declared that criminals be facing the music with harsher penalties ‘neath the dark clouds of a state of emergency. And, indeed, Florida's very own trooper, Morales, found the abandoned beastie and gave him a new title: Trooper! A fine name for a brave dog who weathered a storm!
As the winds howled and the rain poured, Trooper was rescued and whisked away to a foster home in Tallahassee, where the kind-hearted folks are tending to his needful spirit. The good Governor DeSantis himself vowed to hold that scallywag accountable for such treachery against man's best mate! So, remember, ye landlubbers, don’t be leavin’ your furry mates behind, or ye shall face the wrath of the law! Arrr!
