ANNAPOLIS, Md. (WJZ) — A Maryland man was arrested for animal cruelty after his girlfriend told police she caught him on video abusing their dog on Friday.
A woman told police that she saw her boyfriend, Jeffrey Keith Donohue, kick her dog several times on a security camera. The video showed the suspect corner their three-year-old Polish Sheepdog and kick it five times in its side while the dog yelped in pain.
