A man who tried to have his dog's body cremated was arrested Wednesday on an animal cruelty charge. Authorities said he beat the white puppy and choked it to death at his home.

Shane Thompson, 20, who lives west of Boca Raton, took the dead, three-legged dog, named Moonshine, to Cole Animal Clinic in Boca Raton on Oct. 7, according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office. Thompson told the staff that his pet, a wolf-dog mix, had died that morning, possibly from a seizure.

A veterinarian examined the dog and found it had bruised ears and a bloody nose. Moonshine had food stuck in his throat and likely choked to death, the vet said, according to the report.

We had a snoodle years ago that had seizures...they lasted just a few seconds at the beginning and when they got to 45 minutes with defecation and urination I had him put down...its possible to have a seizure while eating and die from it....also with clonic/tonic seizures a dog can injure himself....the vet warned me when he was a puppy that the seizures would get worse as he aged and they did....

Just as people with epilepsy can injure themselves badly during a seizure...

I’m all for cremating Shane Thonpson while he’s still alive.
Where’s Dexter when you need him. Hope this a$$hole rots in hell.
