In LaCrosse, Wisconsin, a transient has been charged with animal cruelty for dragging his dog on its back along a street on Sunday, reports WizmNews.
Concerned residents called the police as Elias Delaney Quinn, 28, was witnessed dragging his dog after the pooch stopped to sniff a rock. Quinn became angry and threw down his water bottle while cursing at the dog. Quinn then dragged the dog on its back by its leash along the Second and Pearl Street intersection; the dog whimpered and cried out in pain. The dog then managed to escape from his leash and ran away. The man caught up with the dog and cursed it out again. Authorities report the man was intoxicated.
A woman traveling with Quinn is caring for the dog. Quinn is scheduled to appear in court on October 5.

This person should not be allowed to have any animal and the animal needs to be put up for adoption.
Elias Delaney Quinn doesn’t sound like anyone I would want to be traveling with, No doubt he will become intoxicated again and either the companion or dog will suffer again! If she has any brains at all she should take the dog and leave!
This breaks my heart. The dog must endure cruelty everyday from this man. What a sad life for this poor dog.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE SOMEONE TAKE THE DOG AWAY FROM THOSE NO GOOD SOBS & GET HIM ADOPTED TO A LOVING FAMILY OR ANYONE HAS TO BE BETTER THAN EITHER ONE OF THISE 2 MONSTERS!!!!!
hope dog gets a good home soon and for his owner.treat him the same way and jail him with people who hates people that hurts or mistreat ot kill 4 legged kids wearing fur.
Ban the man from having any dogs hes not fit to have any animals.
Why didn’t they take the dog away???? It’s abuse. If the one traveling with him kept the dog that means this abuser will come back to the dog. That poor baby should have been taken away!!!!!!!!!! He is bound to get abused again!!!
