I read the Article where the man from Wisconsin hit his dog with a bat four times and killed him. I thought this was a really sad story  for many reasons. One would be because why would you even want to kill or hurt your dog in the first place. And second how could you sit there hitting it with a bat and watch it slowly die. I have no idea how you coulddo that not feel guilty about it. The only good thing is that this man was charged for felony mistreat of animals causeing deaths. And many more charges.
