    Vet charged with Animal Cruelty

    Saw on AOL news that a vet in Arizona has been charged with animal cruelty for punching a chihuahua.  Was a 5 pound chi named Bella and was in for spay.  She was uncooperatived and a little aggressive and he hit her on the head with his fist "3 to 5 times" according to  techs that witnessed it.  Popped one of her eyes out of it's socket and she had to have surgery to put it back.
     
    Sick isn't it?  As the officier said, we entrust our beloved pets to these animal doctors and then have one treat a dog like this is horrible.  Was also reported he had charged someone $80 for a med that he never actually gave to the dog, a mastiff, a while back. I doubt he will ever be able to practice in Arizona again, I just hope he can't move to a new state and start over again.

    What kind of person would strike a 5 pound animal, regardless of what it was doing? He is quite lucky I was not present, his eye would probably be out of the socket.
