On June 11, 2009, Sioux City Iowa police arrested Bobby Loggins, 35, who allegedly punched his five month old American Bulldog puppy, named "Sire", in the face about 30 times, causing the dog's death. Loggins was upset his dog had gone on the carpet during a party at his home. Loggins told police, however, he accidentally slammed his dog's head in the door. Loggins was released after only two hours in custody.
Loggins is charged with one count of animal torture and for filing a false police report, both misdemeanors.
Police Chief Doug Young called Sire's death "a heinous crime." City Attorney Andrew Mai said he has talked to the Woodbury County Attorneys' office, who will handle the case. "They said they will file the maximum charge they can file in court and are prosecuting it to the fullest extent of the law in the death of this animal," Mai said.

i WAS @ dog beach where I take my dog Bell QUITE OFTEN and this man next to me was trying to get his dog in the car. FIRST OF ALL - THEY SHOULD HAVE A LEASH ON AT THIS TIME AND HIS DOG DIDN'T. IN FACT HIS DOG DIDN'T WANT ANYTHING TO DO W/HIM, AND BY HIS ATTITUDE I COULD TELL WHY. I asked the man if he'd like me to get his dog in his truck for him since his dog kept coming up to me. He told me no and grumbled some words. Long story short.. I ended up getting his dog for him afterall, trying to help him since he was obviously PI$$ED OFF ABOUT SOMETHING. I felt horrible for helping him after I saw him THROW HIS DOG IN THE TRUCK AND THE POOR PUP HIT IT'S HEAD AGAINST THE BACK WINDOW. I was so upset for helping him, but just thinking how much worse for the little guy had I not helped him then... ugh! some people are such a-holes...
Happy tails...

The "maximum charge" they can file...not too specific and not much of a commitment. If they only held him two hours and let him go that's not much of a start is it?
