A dog recently taken in at a Michigan animal shelter is missing one of his legs. According to the Michigan Humane Society, someone amputated the Labrador retriever mix’s hind leg with garden shears and a kitchen knife.
On Thursday morning, the animal welfare agency stated:
Yesterday morning our CID team rescued Mackinac, a dog in Hamtramck who was called in after someone attempted to amputate his leg with garden shears and a kitchen knife. The dog was seized and transported to our Detroit facility and is currently receiving care from our veterinary team.
According to the animal shelter, charges are being sought against the parties responsible for the alleged criminal act. More details and updates will be posted by the Michigan Humane Society as they become available.
Donations for this dog, and other homeless animals in need of care, can be made to the shelter at this link.

Such crazy people in this world hope you prosecute who ever did this to this poor d9g
Poor dog. His eyes look so sad. What he must have suffered. I hope this subhuman gets the max x2, as the max is probably a slap on the wrist.
Another useless waste of flesh and blood – WAKE UP DETROIT – this is no alleged crime – it is a FELONY animal cruelty case and whoever did this needs to be arrested NOW – then you can take an axe and cut off every appendage on them – THAT would be justice.
DETROIT has become the dumping ground for the “Vermin” of this country and the “Scumbags ” from several countries that are REALLY EVIL and VILE SCUM!!! Detroit doesn’t even look like and American City!!!
My comment was deleted. I’m wondering why.
I have no idea why your comment didn’t show up. I just checked and it had been approved. I approved it again. My apologies.
They should get the death penalty and if that’s not legal, life imprisonment for this shocking attempt of murder. How the poor pup didn’t bleed to death or die from horrific pain and shock after this brutal crime!
Get Them Judge!!!
