i cant believe this

I thought I've seen and heard it all, but this really puts the icing on the cake. Wasn't exactly sure were to put this under, but this dog deserved the rescuiing. Yesterday my husband and I were watching the news and on there was a fourteen year old boy and it was told that this young boy had a pitbull for a family pet and this young boy put something flammable all over his dog and then put his dog on fire. Um, what the heck and was he serious. Then I'm like um were was his parents when all this was going on. Totally crazy and I think he needs some therapy. Well anyways, it was said that the fourteen year old teenager would be charged with a fellony for arson as well as charged with animal cruelty. The animal services confiscated the pitbull witch was actually only two years old and is actually trying to help him survive. They have already said that the vet bills are already reaching the thousands and they are actually looking to the community to help with the vet bills. Once the dog is healthy enough they are going to put him up for adoption. I hope that he gets well and I hope that he gets to a good home. The young boy stated that he did not catch the dog on fire on purpose but that it was on accident, but the authorities stated that his story just does not line up with all the injuries that had occured to the dog. According to the police and the veterinarians it seemed as though the fourteen year old boy had poured cologne or something flamable on the dog and then had set him on fire. Well, I hope that whatever is necessary to help out the dog is done. If I could give any money I would. And like I said I believe more than anything that this boy needs some therapy. The name of the dog is churchill.
