The poor dog whose owner tied his mouth with duct tape is currently causing outrage in the online community.

Police in South Carolina, USA have just arrested a man after discovering that this guy was the culprit who fastened electrical tape to the muzzle of a dog named Caitlyn. This man’s cruel actions will most likely result in the poor animal potentially suffering permanent injury.

Police said the arrested man was named William Leonard Dodson, 41, living in the city of Charleston, South Carolina, USA. After the outrageous actions that William did to Caitlyn, this man has been charged with animal cruelty and is currently being held on a bond of up to $ 50,000. However, animal lovers are still very upset that $ 50,000 is not commensurate with the pain and fear that this dog has to go through.

It is known that Caitlyn is a Staffordshire mixed breed and is known by many people living in the area for her lovely friendliness. But suddenly one day last week, Caitlyn appeared at the door of a resident’s house, with her snout tightly wrapped in duct tape and showing signs of infection. Many sources say the cruel owner did this to prevent Caitlyn from barking.
