Deputies with the George County Sheriff's Office have arrested a man accused of setting his dog on fire, Sheriff Dean Howell said.

Brandon Pierce, 20, was arrested Tuesday on an animal cruelty charge after officers found his dog doused with a flammable liquid and burning.

Pierce said he "wanted to help the dog go to heaven" and he was acting erratically, Howell said.

The dog survived the burning and was transported to the George County Animal Hospital. Animal hospital officials say the dog may lose eyesight due to the burns and could possibly lose a front leg. The tip of its nose was also burned off.

Drugs and demon possession are a terrible thing.

Sounds like it would have been kinder to put the poor little guy to sleep.

[WXRGina]

That’s what I thought, too. The poor thing.

[yefragetuwrabrumuy]

The dog or the owner?

“The dog or the owner?”

The dog. The owner needs a bullet behind the left ear lobe.

If I knew I would’nt be prosecuted, would pour gas on this piece of human crap,and light it. See how he likes it.

[informavoracious]

He has crazy eyes.

[Vendome]

Please dear God:
Let me meet this A-hole in a dark alley one day..

[bgill]

An eye for an eye.

[rightly_dividing]

I noticed that too, he looks too much like several mass murderers in those crazy eyes.

[patriot08]

Evil sob. Nothing I hate more than somebody cruel to innocent animals.

[WXRGina]

Lowlife, dirt bag, demon possessed worm in Mississippi PING!

[WXRGina]

Yes, it’s sickening.

[Gandalf_The_Gray]

He has crazy eyes.

They are not looking in the same direction. He's "wall-eyed" rather than cross-eyed (looking in toward his nose).
