Six bulldog puppies rescued from locked suitcase

What could be more adorable than six bulldog puppies sitting in a suitcase? As cute as the above photo is, it has a less-than-heartening beginning.

An Ohio man has been charged with animal abandonment after Humane Society authorities matched his name with a suitcase in which the six puppies had been trapped. The suitcase, allegedly belonging to Howard Davis, 53, had been left next to a garbage can in a Toledo alleyway.

The puppies were discovered after someone noticed their mother pacing around the closed suitcase.

Toledo Area Humane Society spokeswoman Cyndi Condit told Reuters that Davis lives only two blocks from where the puppies were found.

1. Not even a slap on the wrist IMO. These people get off way too easily. n/t

2. It's been that way forever. Nothing ever changes. nt

4. Year after year, decade after decade, I keep hoping, but often it's the SOS. As one of

my professors told me a long time ago when I was on one of my rants, "~if you're looking for change in the US, you might well wait a very long time and be very disappointed."

3. The horror. What kind of person could be so cruel? Castration is too kind for him. nt
