Man In Jail For Beating Dog After It Stole His Steak

October 5, 2010 at 11:00 am by Morbid

KEY LARGO – A dog owner has been sent to jail on a count of animal cruelty after police say he beat his dog. Noah Mitchell, 33, has been accused of dragging his black Labrador named “Bubba” by his collar so hard that he damaged the dog’s esophagus. But punishment for trying to run from Mitchell paled in comparison to the ass-kicking Bubba got when he stole Mitchell’s steak off a kitchen counter. An enraged Noah allegedly picked up Bubba and body-slammed him, then once the dog was on the ground, he performed a knee-drop on him before throwing an unconscious Bubba in a cage. Reports don’t say who called police, but when they arrived at the home they found Bubba unresponsive inside the cage. It would be later determined Bubba was suffering from neck injuries, a collapsed lung and broken ribs. Doctors who treated Bubba say if he had been brought in an hour later, he more than likely would have died. If you’d like to help pay for Bubba’s medical bills, ask how at any First State Bank branch.

Yer doing an excellent job, Morbid.

I’d much rather put my money towards hiring an 1100 pound sumo wrestler to perform a knee drop on on the throat of this low life MFer.

Another dog beating asshole! I think this fuckhead, Noah should be responsible for paying his dog’s medical bills, and his own after I get done with him! That mugshot has dog beating asshole written all over it. I hate reading about fuckers like this first thing in the morning.

Poor Bubba, him just being a lab.

Damn, I like my food, but I would never beat an animal or person over it!

I’ve owned a couple of yellow labs. (Jewels and Jax) Great dogs! Wonderful with kids and just a joy to have in general. They have so much personality. My ex use to get pissed because they were so docile. (any wonder as to why he is my ex?)

That is heart breaking.

I agree, it is heartbreaking. I rescued some kind of Lab cross little puppy that was abandoned on the road three weeks ago. When I saw him crying, running down the road after he almost got hit, I called out to him and he ran 150 yards to me and jumped into my arms. I kept him and he is so cool! I hate fuckers like Noah and would like to punch that smug look right off his fucking face! Too bad I live so far away.

I agree this f-er should be totally responsible for paying the poor dear’s medical bills and shouldn’t be allowed to have him back. I just hope he hasn’t done irreparable emotional damage to Bubba and some loving family will give him a good home. Here is a hint, if you don’t want your DOG to steal your STEAK don’t leave it where the poor thing will find it to be too much temptation!

I agree with you !!

What dog isn’t gonna at least try for that mouth-watering, smellin-good steak on the counter?? That’s why I put mine in the microwave or oven for safekeeping till I’m ready to eat. What an asshole. That’s just a dog being a dog….you don’t like it?? DON’T GET A FU&*ING DOG!!!!! Simple.

What a butt-head. Beating and nearly killing an innocent dog for being, well, a dog. When a human leaves a juicy steak around an animal, that animal is going to take the initiative and get the steak. Anyone who doesn’t understand this shouldn’t be allowed to have a pet.

As a kitten, one of my cats had a habit of stealing raw steaks out of the sink while they were thawing. Even thought it was a waste, my husband and I always had a pretty good laugh over it when it happened. It was more our fault than Steak-Stealer’s. (Yeah, we nicknamed the cat Steak-Stealer.) In all honesty, it just showed us how intelligent and innovative our cat is.

Bubba’s (former) dumbshit human needs to develop a sense of humor and appreciate dogs for their positive and negative aspects, not that I think he should ever be allowed to have a dog, or any other pet, ever again. I hope Bubba pulls through and gets adopted by humans who deserve him more than this asswipe. The jackass should be billed for Bubba’s medical expenses. I hate people who are cruel to animals.

This made my heart hurt:( I mean wow, if I beat my dogs every time they steal food (sneaky devils!) I wouldn’t get much else done. Just yesterday I found one of them munching a tomatillo…I just figured she was a happy dog so oh well!

I’m eating cereal & this story churned my stomach more than the woman getting raped & getting her chest carved up with HO.

First off, you can train a dog TO NEVER GET ON TABLES, COUNTERS OR CHAIRS or to even get on 2 paws to reach things. Mine are. Second, if you leave it where they don’t actually have to go through trouble or to stretch themselves to get it, IT’S YOUR FAULT.

3rd, if you have a dog & you leave food unattended IT WILL HAPPEN, SO IT’S ALL YOUR FAULT.

My husband used to take our mutt to work & she’d eat his tinfoiled/saran wrapped sandwiches without eating the wrapping completely & he wouldn’t know where they went until he looked in the back & found the wrappers. He yelled at her & then go hungry. It was his fault. Once he bought fried chicken at the store & put it on the dash while he checked a well (he works for the gas/oil industry) & when he came back it was gone & the dog was munching on it. He yelled at her, took the rest away & went hungry. It was his fault.

See the pattern fuckwad?

The original Noah was a righteous and noble man. You are a disgrace to the name, my friend. Maybe I could forgive you, but could you ever forgive yourself for the horrible thing you did to one of God’s animals, your own loyal dog?! Remember, only cowards beat animals.
headonapike

Yes! I couldn’t give the little guy up now. I love my little Zeker! I have another fixed male blue heeler- German Shepherd who is teaching him the finer points of being a dog.

Aw, that makes me want to get our dog a puppy friend.

I kid you not, my cat stole my helf-eaten steak off my plate when she was a kitten.

I didn’t beat the crap out of her though.

On a much lighter note…..get yourself a chihuahua. They can’t reach the kitchen counter. Unless you are a dwarf and have had your kitchen modified.

My boyfriend’s dog, now our dog, is a notorious thief who is also pretty smart. I have learned to block the garbage can and put all ‘sitting’ foods in oven, microwave or fridge asap.
I never beat the dog for being smarter than me.

Shit! My parrots steal my food off my plate all the time. In fact, I don’t think it really is my food. I’m beginning to think it’s their food and they let me have some. For my birthday, I just want to eat in a room all by myself. Lol.

Ahw Zeker!! I love it! Give him a pet and treat for me. Your’e a good egg!
TARHEELS BABY!

I couldn’t help but giggle at the thought of the dog eating the sandwich and doing a “vanishing” trick about it….your poor hubby wondering if his sammich grew legs and walked away till he found the wrappers and therefore the guilty party….hahahahaha!! That dog sounds cute as hell. I bet the dog had that sheepish look too when the jig was up LOL
NOT worthy of beating an animal (Well nothing is, for that matter). Period.

My ex-neighbor told me he punched his dog (part lab) in the head for taking his hot dog off the coffee table. I said “Why the fuck did you put a hot dog within reach of a 70 lb. dog and then get pissed off because she took it??” I hate that fucker.

Hell, my bird steals my food all the time, but I don’t punch, kick, hit, etc. him. I’ve learned to live with it. It’s not fair though because i don’t steal his food! LOL
Siobhan

Lol!
Mine do the same, and if they see me eating *anything* that they have not been offered, I get repeated loud choruses of “Thank you!” – which is both their reply when given treats and their begging words.
Their most favorite food they beg for by name, screaming “Caesar! Caesar! Pizza! Pizza!”, the minute the pizza box enters the house. Those were also some of the first words my blue crown (Caesar) spoke, picked up from TV commercials that he thinks are talking directly to him.

What a craphole! The fact that he named his dog “Bubba” does lead one to assume he’s a braindead Floriduh redneck (no offense to FL, there are such people everywhere).

This poor pooch with his damaged esophagus (among other others) reminds me of something I still feel bad about that I saw, but didn’t do anything about, in Amsterdam a few years ago (no, not the poor Romanian hookers blowing fratboys from the U.S.). There’s this great park called the Vondelpark, and we were sitting there, enjoying the subshine, stoned as fuck from having visited several “coffee shops,” sitting there eating a bunch of DELICIOUS PASTRIES, when these two scruffy, rought-looking dudes were walking by at a distance. One of the men had a blond terrier on a leash. The dog kept barking as they walked. The man kept yanking it up off the ground, into the air by the leash. Each time he dropped the dog back down, it would cough and shake it off. Start barking again. Get hung in the air again for a few seconds. The 2 dudes just were walking along like it wasn’t happening. And the park was full of people, no one doing anything.

I still feel bad I didn’t try to do something. Should’ve run over and drop kicked the fucker, I guess, but it’s not like I could really beat the fuck out of 2 men, and I don’t speak Dutch, so I felt paralyzed. If it’d happened here, I would have just called the cops. At the very least, it was a buzzkill. But of course that’s nothing compared to the fact that this dog’s life probably sucked on a regular basis. I still feel sad about it.

You can tell what a person is really like by the way they treat animals. Look around you and you will find that animal owners are friendlier and easier to get along with than those without friends of the animal persuasion.My dog is a ‘jack russell’ and 16 yrs old. He still walks with me everyday and since we sold the farm,he lives inside. He is my best friend. He never gets upset with me.WHAT A GREAT MATE HE IS.
