I, not knowing the situation, can only assume that the father is abusive to his entire family, not just the child. How can you imagine that any person could act this way to one member of the family only. If there is a mom in the house, she has very likely been beaten down to accept this person's will as law. That sort of controlling personality gets off on the suffering of those around him. If you are familiar with the cycle of abuse, after an abusive episode there is usually a 'honeymoom' period, with promises of better days, presents, & lies. Let's hope the gifts don't include a puppy.
And if you think about an abusive situation, wouldn't it seem likely that this poor dog may have tried to defend her family? And the grades issue was just an excuse? I most sincerely hope that this incident was reported. Cruelty to animals usually precedes cruelty to people, & now they have lost their protector.....
I know I'm reading way between the lines, but I just have an ache in my gut that tells me this may be the case. jackie harris

The whole family was obviously abused. The dog actually had belonged to the husband's sister, who was dying of cancer in the hospital. I was glad to be able to get her a photo of Lucky with his new family, just a day before she passed. The mother of the boys told me it was the last thing the poor woman was still worried about, and that knowing her dog was safe gave her permission to leave this earth.
