Dog Lover & Proud Pet Parent


Passionate when it comes to my canine companions as well as dogs everywhere, it's my mission to raise awareness of any issues that affect them, from their health, food and nutrition and training to their welfare. Canine advocacy is something that everyone who cares about dogs needs to be aware of and we all need to share that and raise our voice for those who cannot speak for themselves.

    What time should we be at court. I want to make sure they give this guy the max.

  • Admin

    Best thing to do would be to call the number listed to confirm and find out the time :) Pity I can’t be there too…

  • Joan Corr

    Dear, animal loving people,

    I have to be at work tomorrow and live in the city. But, I will do anything possible to see that this fiend, Derick Phanord, receives the maximum penalty possible for what he he did to this sweet dog. Thanks to everyone who is taking the time to see that civilized, animal lovers WILL NO LONGER TOLERATE a crime as heinous as this one. I still can’t think about how horrible this crime was without feeling intense heartache.

    Love to everyone.

    Maximus defenders,

    Write – call Mr. Thomas Spoto, Suffolk County District Attorney,
    400 Carleton Avenue, Central Islip, NY 11722.

    Tell him that this sick, sadistic fiend (Phanord) must receive the MAXIMUM SENTENCE
    possible.!!

    We must send a message that what happened to Maximus
    WILL NOT BE TOLERATED BY DECENT, CIVILIZED, PEOPLE EVERYWHERE.

    Peace and Love,

    Joan

    Joan, this is definitely a crime that has galvanized people into action and is pushing legislators to strengthen laws and enact harsher penalties for animal abusers. If this can happen then poor Maximus won’t have died for nothing, he will leave a legacy that will long live on and will punish those who hurt and abuse other after him. No, it can’t bring him back but let’s just hope he will never be forgotten!

    I cried For Hours After Hearing This Story Through a bulletin posted on myspace. I Hate This Man I Think He Deserves To Be Tied To A Tree & Lit On Fire!!
    He Is Sick In The Head And Should Get a Murder sentence or even put to death, because this is murder of a poor innocent Dog. If He Could do this To Such A Beautiful creature, Just Imagine What He Could Do To Another Person. He Should Be Put To Death And It Should Be Publicized So All The Defenders Of Maximus Can See Him Suffer For The Pain And Suffering He Caused Poor Maximus!!!

    RIP Maximus, Gone But Never Forgotten ♥.

    I CRIED SOOOOO MUCH WHEN I SAW THAT BULLITIN ON MYSPACE.IT JUST BROKE MY HEART.

    IF YOU WANT 2 SUPPORT THE ANIMALS IN NEED,JUST GO 2 MY MYSPACE – HERE
    PLEASE,SUPPORT THE ANIMALS IN NEED.

    HERE IZ THE BULLITIN FROM MY SPACE:

    Take a minute and read this..please.. do it for maximus

    On July 12, 2007 a pitbull names maximus was found.

    He was tied to a tree and badly burnt over 60 percent of his body.

    Someone had poured gasoline all over him, set him on fire and then walked away while he was still burning

    Shortly after being found, undergoing multiple surgerys and recieving veterinary care

    Maximus’ short life (he was only 2 years old) ended.

    One of the vetrinarians who tried to save Maximus described him as ” …a good dog up until the very end … giving licks and kisses.”

    Maximus didn’t deserve to die
    He had done nothing wrong

    Derick Phanord was arrested and charged with aggravated animal cruelty.

    RIP Maximus

    It’s hard to even fathom who somebody would do this to a kind, gentle, good-natured and beautiful animal like Maximus.

    Pass the message along… Animals are our friends and our family

    DO NOT HURT THEM!!!!!!

  • mike

    kill the man who did this to the best dog. he should be sentenced to the fullest.

    r.i.p. maximus. remember. all dogs go to heven

  • Morgan && Kaycee

    awee..
    when we seen that bulletin on myspace we
    cried and we couldn’t even look at it…
    that man should be put to death because if he
    did that to a poor inoccent dog that did nothing to anyone..
    just imagine if he didn’t like someone and when he gets out of jail
    he takes that person where the police can’t find him and
    kills him…
    but no one knows…

    R.I.P Maximus…Gone But Never Forgotten ♥.
    ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

    P.S–Please listen to the ppl..
    and atleast think about it….

  • V

    I think that crimes people commit towards animals should be done right back to them! Maybe then idiotic people like this monster will learn that an animals life is equal to human life. He should get as harsh a punishment as if the dog were a human.

  • brayton

    this guy should not only be charged with animal cruelty but something way worse then that dogs r just like humans what he did to that dog was horrible he commited a murder and should be charged with it i think its bull shit that guys like him get away with stuff like this cause u kno once he gets out of prsion hes goingt odo it again. i think our goverment needs to do something about it and stop being selfish
