Dog abuse is alive and well. This poor dog thought his life was changing for the better and now he’s gone. So sad.

SNELLVILLE, Ga. – Authorities say a 2-year-old Dachshund had to be put down after being hit by a car, and the dog’s owners admitted to police that they fed the animal LSD before the accident.
The dog, whose name was Oscar, had been adopted from a local animal shelter just a week earlier.
Snellville police say on Sunday night, they received a report of a man and woman who were seen running naked down Pinehurst Road.
When officers arrived, they found 25-year-old Nicholas Modrich and his girlfriend, Jamie Hughes, inside a home. When Modrich opened the door to the home, he was still naked, and officers said they could see marijuana and drug paraphernalia in plain view.
Oscar the dog was missing from the home at the time. The couple told police they had taken acid, smoked marijuana, and drank alcohol. They also said they had given their dog acid.
Modrich’s mother arrived at the house a short time later with the injured dog. Police say she had gotten a call that he had been hit by a car on a nearby street, and she went to pick him up. Oscar later had to be put down due to his injuries.
Animal control officers are testing the dog to see if he indeed ingested the drugs as his owners claim. According to the police report, Modrich adopted Oscar on October 25 from a local shelter.

Wow!!! This is a very strong message to animal shelters….now matter that they are overcrowsded with animals looking for their Forever Homes, people adopting animals really have to be checked out more carefully before they are able to adopt a pet…..I can’t believe they fed the little dog drugs and now he/she is dead…..again, criminal charges have to be brought against animal abusers……if not, how will it ever stop if these deranged SOB’s are brought to justice??
This story shows how right you are. We just adopted a rescue pup…I felt like I practically had to surrender my firstborn to get her….could not believe all the paperwork and recommendations we had to submit but have to understand in tne face of sjch tragic circumstances.
Maybe they should consider putting Oscar’s owners down?
I own two Dachshunds, a 4 year old and a 3 year old. We also rescue them from shelters and find them homes. We make an intense research of the family first and after the adoption has taken place.
This has shocken me up to the point of tears. I cannot imagine what would I do to someone who hurt my dogs, hit them, feed them drogs or else… Oh! How I wish I could run into these two…
Like Beryl said, this is an Achtun for all shelters out there.
Keep up the good work, greetings from Spain!
