Woman Taped Puppy To Refrigerator

[peggy353]

APRIL 14--Meet Abby Toll. The University of Colorado student, 20, is facing a felony animal abuse rap after she allegedly taped her boyfriend's puppy to the side of a refrigerator in a bid to teach the rambunctious animal a "lesson." According to police, Toll used clear packing tape early this morning to adhere the eight-month-old dog (a Shiba Inu named Rex) to the appliance in the kitchen of her boyfriend's apartment. Toll allegedly was angry at Bryan Beck, 21, for failing to get rid of the puppy, which, Toll told cops, bit her a few days ago. According to the below Boulder Police Department reports, when cops responded at 5 AM to a "report of a male and female yelling" at Beck's apartment, they discovered that "Rex's body was completely encased in packing tape." When Officer Kara Jurczenia asked what was on the side of the fridge, Toll replied, "The dog." Toll added, "I know this looks really bad, but the dog bites. He is aggressive." Jurczenia asked how long the puppy had been taped upside down to the side of the refrigerator. "Not long," Toll replied. "Like 20-30 minutes. It was just until he calmed down." The reports note that when Beck saw his dog stuck to the refrigerator, he told Toll, "Take him down," adding, "You are so sick!" Toll replied, "No, you are sick for not caring enough about me to get rid of the dog." The animal, whose paws had been bound with elastic hair ties, was clearly in pain and "yelped and screamed loudly" as cops worked to free him. "Rex just lay motionless, but breathing, on his kennel after he was removed from the tape." The puppy was handed over to the Boulder Valley Humane Society. Toll, seen in the above mug shot, was turned over to county jailers. Beck, who was arrested in connection with his scuffle with Toll, was not charged with animal abuse. Though he did reportedly tell police, "We were going to get rid of him anyway. We usually don't do this."

Well, I would of bit them both. Dogs are good judge of character, he was probably treated badly by her.

Sick b!tch needs to be bound and hung upside down herself...see how she likes it. Im with DBD. Puppy probably knew she was a b!tch and thats why he bit her.

WOW she has to be evil. I mean think about it, this was not a tiny puppy. She has to use a butt load of tape to hold him. Apparently, she wasn't to afraid of him if she was able to tape him to a fridge. WOW, even if I was "trying" to come up with something horrible to do to a dog. I don't think I could have come up with something this mean. I hope she gets the maxium sentence. Witch!

[whatever]

I HATE reading stuff like this. It literally turns my stomach!!!
I always want to smack people like this upside down the head. I always feel what you do to a person or ANIMAL should be done to you and lets see how you like it!!! Stupid b1tch!!

She obviously was not too scared of the dog she got close enough to tape it to the frig. I say put her in a cage and let the puppy go to a loving home. And arrest the boyfriend for not surrendering the dog sooner so that it would not go through this abuse. Not preventing the abuse is just as bad as performing the abuse. Who knows what they have done in the past to this puppy - this is just when they got caught.
