Inga is one very sweet, fun, and happy go lucky puppy dog. She has a beautiful brindle and white coat, an adorable white paint splotch above her nose, white chest, and cute little white boots on her paws! Her striking good looks are matched by her wonderful disposition..She is very affectionate and loves to cuddle.

We become irrationally angry when we see dog owners on rollerblades being pulled down the street by their pets. We understand why they do it, but it doesn't make us less incensed. So imagine how we're feeling right now typing that a South Side man was arrested on animal cruelty charges when police spotted him dragging a puppy down the street, tied to a car tire.

39-year-old Joseph Clopton allegedly told police he learned the technique, which supposedly helps dogs build muscle, online.
