Today, and for the past several years, a dog in Tunis, TX has lived in a rusty metal cage with a dirty mattress on top, with no protection from the elements, isolated and sequestered to it's cramped prison cell 24/7.

This deliberate animal neglect/abuse is NOT what the people of Burleson County will tolerate in our community and is frankly deplorable.

We ask that the Burleson County Sheriff and Police Department activate immediately to remove the dog from its abusive and inhumane situation. We have multiple folks willing to take in the dog immediately upon rescue, alleviating any further responsibility of the dog from the county.

By signing this petition, we take a stand to step up for the animals experiencing abuse and neglect in Burleson County. We set a new precedent that we absolutely expect our police and sheriff to stand up to animal abusers and take action to intervene when animal welfare is compromised.
