Obviously this Chick's Major is Not Humanities....

A female University of Colorado student is charged with felony animal abuse after she taped her boyfriend's puppy to the side of a refrigerator with clear packing tape to teach the dog a "lesson." The dog is an eight-month-old Shiba Inu puppy named "Rex".

The student allegedly was angry at her boyfriend for failing to get rid of the puppy, which she claims bit her a few days ago. In her statement to police, the student said she taped the puppy to the refrigerator "Not long. Like 20-30 minutes. It was just until he calmed down."

Rex, whose paws were bound with elastic hair ties, was clearly in pain and "yelped and screamed loudly" as cops worked to free him. Upon his release from the tape, Rex was motionless, but breathing. Rex was turned over to the Boulder Valley (CO) Humane Society. The student was arrested. The boyfriend, who was not charged with animal abuse, said "We were going to get rid of [Rex] anyway. We usually don't do this."

The boyfriend should be charged too for not protecting his dog. That woman is sick.
