PIERCE COUNTY, Wash. — A small dog has been taken from its owner after abuse of the animal was captured on Ring camera footage.
Pierce County Animal Control received a report on Oct. 17, including the Ring video evidence, of a man abusing a dog. The dog appears to be a corgi or a similar-sized breed.

A day after the report was filed, Animal Control obtained a warrant and seized the dog from its owner.
The dog was taken to a local veterinarian, where no major injuries were found.
The dog was placed in the custody of the Humane Society until the owner posts bond and the case is reviewed by a judge.
