Posh Pets on Flatbush Cruel to Animals

bklynem

I just wanted to alert all of the pet owners in the area...

I was walking down the street yesterday and witnessed a very big man whip a very tiny dog with the end of a leather leash. Extremely hard. He then proceeded to hit the dog with an open hand. Extremely hard. Hard enough and loud enough to stop me and others dead in our tracks. As the dog was cowering and whimpering, I looked up only to recognize the man, and the other two men he was walking with, from the groomer/pet store on Flatbush where I sometimes buy my cat food. I have already contacted The Humane Society but I thought it was also important to let you guys know. I'm assuming this is not an isolated incident, these things usually aren't, but I do not know for sure. But if they are comfortable doing something like this on the street, who knows what they are doing in the shop. The point is...I wouldn't trust these people with my pet.

The store is called Posh Pets and it is located at 256A Flatbush Avenue.
