The 5-month-old pit bull mix was burned very badly, said Pennsylvania SPCA officials who took part in the arrest. The puppy, which rescuers named Rudy, was being treated last night at the SPCA facility on East Erie Avenue. The dogs neck and ears were charred, its whiskers were burned off, and one of its corneas was seared. The animal also had been burned repeatedly with a cigarette. Its going to be disfigured, and maybe also blind in one eye, said George Bengal, the SPCAs director of law enforcement. John William Fleet III, 33, was taken into custody Friday at his home in Northeast Philadelphia and charged with animal cruelty, according to the Philadelphia *Inquirer*. On Thursday night, police say, Fleet had his two children a 6-year-old boy and a 12-year-old girl hold the dog while he covered it with alcohol. Bengal said authorities believe the suspect became enraged after the dog nipped at the children. The incident came to light when a counselor at Harding Middle School heard what happened and notified the SPCA. Police, after not being allowed into the house, broke through a window to gain entrance and found the dog in the basement. Fleet told investigators the dog was burned accidentally. The children last night were staying with their mother at another location. -- Ray Champagne http://blog.raychampagne.com http://twitter.com/raychampagne Pablo Picasso<http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/p/pablo_picasso.html> - "Computers are useless.
