Do you think it’s the same dog? Might be the optimist in me, but I say, YES!

Ah, nothing better than a story about a boy and his dog named, er, Killer? Might I suggest a name change? How about… Fluffy.

A Marquette teen is accused of punching a 9-year-old boy in the face and stealing his German shepherd puppy Tuesday.
The boy’s mom said it might be a new low for Salina.
“I was born and raised here, and I have never in my life read in the Salina Journal about a 9-year-old boy being robbed for a dog,” April Hyman said.
Lacey L. Freeborn, 18, was arrested on charges of robbery and battery. Brittney L. Brown, 15, 1419 Brittany, was also arrested in connection with the incident. On Wednesday evening, Freeborn remained in Saline County Jail, and Brown had been released.
Hyman said her son, Juan Whitaker Jr., and friends Robert Brown, 9, and Joseph Brown, 7, were walking their dogs in an alley in the 1200 block of North Seventh Street at 8 p.m. when a red Chevrolet Blazer pulled up and two teenaged girls got out. One of them said Juan’s dog was hers, she said.

KENTWOOD — A couple still reeling after their dog was killed when two teens broke into their home this week say a backyard grave is all they have left of their family pet.
A police officer, touched by their grief, brought them a memorial plaque to mark the final resting place of their dog, Pinto, behind their Jefferson Street SE home.
“It’s crazy, I don’t understand how they could do that,” Abel Soto said of the young suspects. “They had no thought for human life, or for dog life. My dog’s dead.”
Soto, 50, said he left his home in the 4400 block of Jefferson just before 1 p.m. Monday to cash a check for his wife at a nearby bank. When he returned about 15 minutes later, he noticed the bathroom light was on, which seemed strange since his wife had left for work.

Baltimore police are searching for three boys — believed to be ages 10 to 12 — who were seen beating a young pit bull to death at Carroll Park golf course Saturday.
And if that’s not a disturbing enough new chapter in Baltimore’s continuing saga of animal abuse, consider this: According to a Baltimore Sun report, Animal Control officers didn’t arrive at the golf course until more than five hours after the incident was reported to police.
A golf course maintenance worker, Rob Whiderman, saw the youths beating the puppy with a tree branch at the municipal golf course in Southwest Baltimore.
