Anyone who has a heart, please use it.

This outrages me. In short the article is about a Cornell University student, Alexander H. Atkind, who was dog sitting for someone. Princess, a labrador/pit bull mix, chewed through a wire in Atkind’s apartment. Atkind’s then tortured her by pouring bleach and laundry detergent on her, as well as burning her with cigarettes. When her owner got to her, she also had a gash on her head and her skull exposed.

Please if you have feelings at all, please sign this petition. He can’t get away with this. The Humane Society proposed that felony charges be pursued.

I’m from a small city only 25 minutes away from Ithaca. My husband attended Cornell University, and will be writing a formal letter to Cornell. A dozen other Alumni have sent letters to Cornell. Atkind is scheduled to graduate from Cornell in five weeks. We can only hope he will be expelled. Atkind is also facing drug charges.


I have made it easy for you, our readers, I’ve included a link to the petition site as well as one of the many news articles.
Please, make me and others proud of your decision to sign the petition! The petition’s goal was 1,000 signatures, and it already has more than needed, but every signature counts! Pass the links around, do whatever you can to help! He can’t get away with this!
