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.

Dog Torturer, Killer Gets 2-5 Years! VIDEO

alexander-gregor1 In December 2008, Alexander Gregor, 23, Hilton Head Island, SC,  was arrested and charged with 4 counts of animal cruelty, one for each of two dogs he adopted from shelters then tortured and killed and two more for abusing his then girlfriend’s dog on two separate occasions.

This week Gregor pleaded guilty to the charges before 14th Circuit Court Judge Perry Buckner and actually had the audacity to ask that he not be sent to jail after brutally taking the lives of two innocent dogs and brutally abusing another. Like many other caught abusers he pleaded remorse but luckily Judge Buckner wasn’t buying it.

“I have never had a case in my career on the bench or as a lawyer in which I feel displayed more cruelty to animals than this case,” he said to Gregor as he sentenced this waste of human life to 2-5 years in jail.

JakeGregor adopted one dog, a beautiful white shepherd, Jake (Logan), from the Hilton Head Humane Association, then told then that he was missing and attempted to adopt another. He had actually tortured, killed and buried that poor dog.

“He already knew the dog was dead and buried so when he called us that it was missing, it was obviously a lie but we went through the process of this is how you find a missing dog,” said Frannie Gerthoffer, executive director of the Hilton Head Humane Association. “Then after a week’s time he came to the shelter to adopt another dog since Logan never came back.”

Not ready to give up, he then went to Jasper Animal Rescue Mission. where he adopted another dog, Tag (Greta) which he also tortured, killed and buried.

Tag“Greta was just a sweet puppy, just wanted to be petted and loved,” said Mary Elise Gabbard, president of the Jasper Animal Rescue Mission.

He also abused his then girlfriend’s dog, a husky named Paddy on two separate occasions as well as the girlfriend when she attempted to intervene against his abuse.

I am not going to detail the abuses these poor dog’s suffered at this monster’s hands. You can find more details HERE as part of the original story I wrote.

Animal advocates in the court room were pleased that the judge took these vicious crimes with the seriousnes they needed to be taken.  This is one heatless bastard that needs to be behind bars!  Maybe he can get a taste of the same medicine he inflicted on those poor tortured and defenseless dogs he so wantonly and brutally killed! We can only hope….

    Look at these 2 great pups .This piece of shit needs a great beating in jail. What a tough guy , poor defenceless dogs are his target. hang the bastard

  • Terry

    I look at little Greta and I think , this is the most beautiful little pup , I could kill this bastard and feel good about it

  • AIR

    There is a new spelling for MONSTER, its “Alexander Gregor”.

    • Admin

      Couldn’t agree more Andrea!! What a piece of work! Actually asked to go home after he brutally tortured and killed two adopted dogs and abused another. I’d like to see him behind bars for along time… more than any 2-5 years but this actually is a surprisingly good sentence for an animal abuser to receive, more than the usual “slap on the wrist!”

      Hope he pisses some people off in prison too….

      D.

      • AIR

        Yup, I saw that. AND no credit for time already served. The Judge was horrified as well. Yeah, Gregor asked that he get counseling while staying home with his family…(snicker, laugh, guffaw).

        My remedy for counseling is a Frontal Lobotomy.

    I hope BIG BAD BUBBA makes this moron his bedmate for a month or two and beats him into submission each time!!!!! Evil comes back to evil.

  • MOEGO1

    He will no doubt get what’s coming to him in jail. I just pray that there are many animal lovers in the jail. They will take care of him and let’s see who is defenseless now. He will come out a changed man (mentally) after they get done with him. I don’t think he’ll need a girlfriend or an animal after jail. Someone will make him their bi_ch. OH YEAH!!

  • Susie

    D, he will piss people off in prison. Too many animal lovers, even tho they are behind bars. Where are you Bubba???? Hope you like your new cell mate.

    As I looked at the pictures of the two pups above, they were both so sweet and beautiful. Again, there was no reason for the actions brought against them. I am just grateful the Judge saw to it that it was more than a slap on the wrist, and had seen the viciousness of this jerk’s crimes.

    Wish all judges have the same tolerance level of animal cruelty as Judge Perry Buckner does. Our world would be so much more peaceful, and the tears we shed, the dislike of cruel human beings might not weigh so heavily on us that love animals the way we do.

  • Robyn

    This is great!! It’s about time a judge did the right thing and laid down the law as it is supposed to be done. He has made this case an example to others out there that think it’s fun to torture, abuse, and/or kill innocent animals!!
    Well done!!!!

  • JANET

    FINALLY A 2 TO 5 YEAR SENTENCE FOR AN ANIMAL ABUSER. HEY I JUST HAD A GREAT IDEA. WE HAVE A NATIONAL SEX OFFENDER REGISTRY. SO WHY NOT AN ANIMAL ABUSE REGISTRY THAT ALL ANIMAL ABUSERS MUST SIGN UP FOR IF COUGH & CONVICTED OF AN ANIMAL ABUSE CRIME. IT WOULD BE AVIABLE TO EVERY ANIMAL SHELTER & BREEDER IN THE COUNTRY. ANYONE WANNA HELP GET THIS STARTED?

    • Susie

      Janet, I am headed out of town first thing in the morning, but when I get back, I will get in touch with some of my rescue co horts to see if they have any idea as to where to start. Fantastic idea!

      • JANET

        THANKS SUSIE. I THOUGH SO TOO, AS IT JUST POPPED INTO MY HEAD. I HOPE WE CAN GET SOMETHING DONE AS THIS WOULD HELP KEEP SO MANY ANIMALS FROM ENDING UP IN THE WRONG HANDS. AND JUST MAYBE MAKE MORE STATES MAKE MORE ABUSERS DO MORE JAIL TIME.

  • Jessie

    OMG! How sick can one individual be? How cruel and heartless! Those poor baby’s suffered so bad and for absoloutly no reason! I would rather have this one strung up with a strong rope that slowly tightens around his neck, as abused dogs start chewing off his toes, feet, legs and on up while he is still alive. The bastard!
