Abandonment Charges


Look at this poor little guy... Can you believe this??? At about 8:00Am in the morning Britt and I are on our way to Price Copper, driving along Blue Ridge Rd when we hear a dog barking and yelping. Britt exclaims, "There's a dog trapped down in the sewer!"
"What!" I of course heard the dog as we were cruising down the road, however, I didn't know of any sewer at that point in the road.
"Turn around and go back," Britt demanded!!!
"Yes Dear-of course Dear, I'll turn around dear..." So I immediately turned right into the Blue Ridge shopping center and headed back to the opposite entrance. When low and behold there was this little guy attached to this fence post! To say the least I was flabbergasted at the sight of this poor little dog tied up to a fence post right off of a busy main road. What jerk-off would do this to their dog? I told Britt, "Maybe the person who owns this dog is inside one of the shops and left there dog there momentarily?" I convinced Britt to go ahead and get our shopping done and well come back and check on him afterwards... Yep, you guessed it, he was still there an hour or so later, Britt was pissed at this person to say the least. So we hit up every business in the shopping center looking for the owner - no one laid claim to this poor little guy. Luckily for him, or so we thought, he had a rabies tag on his collar, so we called the veternarian clinic on the tag to try and locate the owner, giving the owner the benefit of the doubt. The clinic was reluctant to give out the name and address, but did so anyway, while simultaneously contacting the owner and leaving them Britt's phone number.
While on our way to this Mike Malone guy's house, which his address by the way is 11318 Bennington in KC, MO, called Britt, and gave some BS story of how he didn't want the dog, and that the dog jumped out of his car and ran away, and someone must have attached the dog to this fence post. We were convinced this guy was making up stories, for one he told Britt that the owners of the Truman Farm home allowed him to let his Pit Bull run free in the fenced in part of the yard. Yeah right Mike Malone your full of it!!! You left your cute little dog child attached to a fence post on a busy road four lane road!!!
So after a four hour long journey of phone calls, and trips to show potential dog owners we ran into a dead end. We couldn't keep the little guy and no one else wanted him either-sad day...
So, we finally decided to take him to Wayside Waifs. At least it's a no kill shelter, however come to find out there is a 6-8 week long wait to get him in. Sadly though, once we informed the dog shelter of the situation they called Grandview Animal Control because what this guy did was completely illegal, and cruel to say the least! We gave GVAC the man's address and phone number, and guess what he is being brought up on charges. That's right-Abandonment Charges!
Mike Malone at 11318 Bennington KCMO is an animal abuser, and will be punished, the one time the system is seeming to work for us!!!
