An animal shelter in Summerville, South Carolina, has taken a severely burned dog into its care. According to Tuesday’s ABC News 4, an animal control officer picked up the grievously wounded dog after he was discovered wandering in a woman’s yard off of Quaker Road in St. George.

The dog, a mixed-breed terrier, has extensive burn wounds across his body – Frances R. Willis SPCA Executive Director Kim Almstead told the Journal Scene that the emaciated dog, “reeked of gasoline and kerosene.”

The young dog, estimated to be just one to two years of age, is receiving round-the-clock care to help him survive the extensive burning. His fate remains uncertain because of his injuries, Almstead stated “We have to go through the first 24 hours because…he is already in shock.”

Anyone with information about this cruelty case is asked to call Animal Control at 843-832-0015. Donations to help with this dog’s care can be made to the shelter’s website here.

  1. There is no way to catch all of the monsters who hurt, torture and maim precious animals …… however…. I truly get great satisfaction thinking what will happen to them in the hereafter!! The good Lord gave us animals to be friends, family and to take care of. The monsters out there hurting these babies will pay with a very, hot, horrible forever in hell!
    I find great comfort in that.

  2. Oh my God that poor dog.Only a evil coward would do something so horrible to an innocent animal.I hope they catch who did this and someone sets the coward or cowards who did this and sets them on fire before they go to court because unless they get a tough no nonsense judge who will give him hard prison time he will probably get off easy or a stupid plea bargain.I wish I could be the one to throw gasoline on these worthless evil cowards and light the match.When are we going to start getting tough on these evil worthless cowards who prey on innocent animals don’t these stupid people who let them off easy know that they will prey on people next.Wake up people and give them what they deserve.They don’t deserve second chances .They don’t give the poor animals second chances why should they get second chances.My heart goes out to this poor dog and all the other animals who have been tortured like this.I’m praying for you little dog.To the people who do these horrible things I hope you get what you deserve you worthless scum I don’t even consider you human.

  3. oh my goodness! this poor baby must be in a lot of pain and suffering…at the hands of some cruel monsters that walk among us. So scary that people are capable of harming innocent animals like this. I wish rescuedogsrockNY would take this pup on. Prayers !

  4. Burn the basterd who did this. Jail is too kind for this POS who would get a roof over his head & 3 meals a day. Retribution is the only thing this cockroach deserves. Please someone in South Carolina get this POS, and do unto him what he did to this beautiful critter.

      • A Colored PHOTO along with the Story in graphic detail should be on the FRONT PAGE of EVERY MAJOR NEWSPAPER in EACH of our 50 STATES !!! The STATE of SOUTH CAROLINA needs to be exposed to the ENTIRE COUNTRY how LAX the Law enforcement and Legislation is There…. The continues Torture, Brutality, Neglect, a Large Number of the RESIDENTS of SOUTH CAROLINA are capable of DOING with NEVER A CONSEQUENCE !!! Tourist ‘s should boycott this Brutal, and Sadistic , Area until they decide to TAKE a STANCE AGAINST THIS CONTINIOUS TORTURE IS ADDRESSED & CURTAILED!!

    • The fact that this little one succumbed to his injuries is not a surprise! The injuries were too much! His little body gave out! To you little one run free you are whole and healthy! Run and play with your new friends! The sun warming you plenty of food to eat and lots of cool clear water to drink! In life you only knew pain, fear, and betrayal! In death you are finally at peace! Good nite sweet little one!

  5. South Carolina Is ONE SICK STATE!!! The RATE of TORTURE, Not JUST ABUSE it TOTALLY OUT or CONTROL DOWN there::: SOME WROTE a WHILE BACK ABOUT YOU STATE BEING INBREED! AT the time I laughed NOW I WONDER!! The EFFECTS of THE DRUGS , and LACK or ANY ETHICAL VALUES and ROTTED YOUR SOULS!!!

  6. The fact that this little one is still alive says much! To the thing or things who did this one day you will have family or you may already have family! To you and yours you will suffer or someone you care about will suffer as you made this little one suffer! If this baby loses this battle then so shall you or the one you care about! Think I’m wrong? Trust me I’m never wrong!

  7. Lord please help this poor little dog terrible and painful abuse he has received from horrible evil people. Help find who ever did this and punish them with no mercy.

  8. I just don’t understand the mind set of anyone that would do this! I pisses me off unbelievably I hope with all my heart and soul that these people die horrible
    excrusiating painful deaths and that this happens soon.

  9. If the dirtbag who did this is ever caught don’t bother to prosecute them, they will get little to no punishment – just stick their useless butt through a wood chipper and do the world a favor. I hope this poor innocent dog survives and gets the safe loving home he obviously never had.

  10. This is a sick world we live in…What satisfaction do you think this cruel heartless bastard got our of this!!!!!!! I hope you rot in hell for your sins….

  11. All I want is 45 minutes alone in a room with the coward who did this.. I don’t ask for much lord.. just give me 45 minutes.

    • Diane if you read further you would have seen this poor baby DIED! I notice you don’t read the article, but, only the headlines. Educate yourself and read the entire story. You only make an ass out of yourself!!!!!

      • Are you SOME SORT of narcissus that is smarter, more educated, a self -centered social butterfly that is one step above everyone else or do perhaps have some flaws too?

      • At least I know how too read the articles. I guess since Ellen hasn’t been around you’ll find someone else to target. WTG!
