In Boise, Idaho, a report got to the authorities over a young woman. She was repeatedly hitting her dog in the face and on the head. This came to notice due to a video of her that went viral. The name of the young woman is yet to be released.
They might call it ‘having fun’ or whatever just to justify her cruelty. But this is inhumane; it is far more than just treating a pet wrongly. Turning a dog into your punching bag is evil, pure wickedness, and cruel.

The case was reported to the Idaho Humane Society, who has then investigated the case and have identified the person in the video which went viral on social media, prompting an uproar. Although, the original post was taken down after the comments weren’t pleasing to her. But there have been copies of the video all over social media. Meanwhile, the woman’s name is yet to be released by the authorities. The case has been transferred to the prosecutors and will be prosecuted for animal abuse.
It was seen in the video that the woman wore gloves and was hitting the German Shepard so hard for at least 9 consecutive times. So pathetic!
In the video, as she was hitting the dog, it got to a point when she exclaimed: “oh, that was hard, I felt that!”.
The city of Boise hopes to update its codes on animal cruelty.
It was stated that the Idaho Inhumane Society Animal Care And Control Officer received overwhelming calls and emails about the video. This prompted an immediate investigation, which led to the identification of the people involved. The IHS (Idaho Humane Society) says the behavior which took place in the video is being considered as ‘misdemeanor’ under the Idaho Humane Society Law of animal abuse. The Law criminalizes “every person who maliciously treats any animal.”

The Idaho Humane Society Animal Care And Control are pleading with the people to stop calling them about the video because the large number of calls coming is taking away their ability to work on other cases.
People need to stop maltreating animals. They have rights too.
