HORIZON CITY, Texas (KTSM) — The El Paso County Sheriff’s Office says a 68-year-old man has been arrested and accused of animal cruelty for abandoning a canine on the side of the road.
Luis Antonio Campos was arrested on Friday by El Paso County deputies and was booked into jail on a $5,000 bond. Animal Welfare Department say they are continuing an investigation into the case.
Authorities say an additional arrest is expected.
The canine has since been adopted after being rescued by the Huckleberry Hound Group.

Someone needs to abandon him... from 1,000’ elevation from a helicopter... without a parachute.
Never understood why people do this. Why not just give the animal over to a shelter? Or to a relative? There are options.
He would have made a nice addition to my own dog pack.
As for animal abusers...
Because shelters and rescues charge a fee. In my area it's $100 and up. We get cats abandoned on our property.
Some people suck. But then, others don’t - this Doggo found a home within 24 hours, so that’s very good! I was expecting gory pictures of an abused animal - glad that wasn’t the case. For once!
Yep. Those that abuse children of ANY age (are you listening Hunter Biden and all you pervert other Socialists?) and animals, deserve their own Ring of Hell.
ugh! we saw this happen once, some jerk in a U Haul truck dumped a beagle and took off. That little dog hauled ass after him.
I made hubby turn around to look for the doggie but no luck.
Pisses me off to no end, and I’m sure the bastard told somebody the dog “got away when I stopped for gas”.
See? Now I am mad again.
they dump the dog because THEY don’t want it, but maybe the wife/husband/kids do, and they are too chicken to argue. So the pet suffers.
This guy is a perfect son of a bi*&h! (Beautiful dog)
Whether a dog, cat, or child, there are places one can drop off one of these if they do not want or can’t afford them.
Rather than just drop them off and flee.
Most Fire houses or hospitals will take care of babies left by those who for what ever reason.
As for animals, there are enough shelters.
Special place in hell for those who just drop any where.
Death penalty...quickly.
“There’s a special place in Hell for this perp…”
No.
But there is for this one:

That was a beautiful dog they abandoned!
I had this happen on a construction site I was a foreman on many years ago. I happened to be working in a unit on a large housing tract when I noticed a car come onto the property by an access road.
Unfortunately I was some distance from the area but I saw a person get out of the car, open up the rear drivers door and pull out a Golden Retriever. Sure enough the driver pushed the dog away from the car and took off. None of my guys were nearby and I jumped in the company truck and tried to catch the guy but I was too far away. There was an animal shelter nearby so I took the dog to them and called the cops. The dog was old, a male and very friendly. The shelter said they'd do what they could( Me and my guys chipped in about a hundred bucks for the care of the dog). I gave the cops the best description of the car I could, a light blue Ford four door. Couldn't see the plate, the driver was a white guy, looked to be in his mid thirties.
I guess if there is a good news component to these stories, it is that the dogs may end up living with better owners.
I’ve seen other video’s of people abandoning their dog and the dog runs after the car; totally heartbreaking.
“...some jerk in a U Haul truck dumped a beagle”
if i could have found and caught him, I would have kept him, and I don’t even like beagles! Poor dog.
