KEISHA CURTIS- NEWARK, NEW JERSEY

March 16, 2011 was a night to remember that we wish we could all forget.  That is the night many of us were made aware of a young Pitbull puppy that would later be named Patrick.

Keisha Curtis, Patrick's owner, tossed this puppy down a garbage chute in her apartment building.  He was tossed down this chute from the 19th floor apartment where Keisha Curtis (KC) lived.  Patrick was found the next day by a maintenance worker in poor condition.  At first they were unsure if Patrick was even alive due to his horrific condition (image 1).  This poor puppy weighed barely 20 pounds.

The authorities were called and he was immediately taken to Garden State Vet Specialists where with the help of AHS of Popcorn Park, NJ he was immediately given treatment for his condition and thus began his long road to recovery.

Patricks story touched many people throughout the USA and other parts of the world.

Patrick is now a healthy and happy boy and is still looking for his forever home.  Thank you to those that saved this sweet boy from a miserable death.


Info on Keisha Curtis:  
Friday, March 25, 2011, Ms. Curtis was charged with two counts of abandonment and two counts of failure to provide proper sustenance to the animal.  This crime carries a sentence of UP TO 6 months in jail and UP TO a $1,000 fine.  HUH?  That is all for this horrific abuse?   Well, if you think this is too lenient for New Jersey law, contact: The Prosecutor’s office to contact is:
Essex County: Prosecutor’s Office:
Carolyn A. Murray, Acting Essex County Prosecutor
50 W Market St # 3
Newark, NJ 07102-1690
(973) 621-4700
Be honest, but be RESPECTFUL. 


Last I have heard, and I am having a hard time getting current info was that KC was found guilty by the Grand Jury and was facing up to 18 months in jail.  She also could get off scott free.  We have seen our judicial system let us down too many times before.  Do any of our readers have current update on her sentencing?   Please email us if you can offer updates.

ASHLEY NICOLE MILLER- LAST KNOWN ADDRESS KILLEEN TEXAS

I am getting information in the last couple of weeks regarding an affiliation with Ashley Nicole Miller (ANM) and a San Diego area rescue called Jericho's Promise.  Details of her involvement with JP is still being investigated and documents collected.  Will update more information as I have it regarding that matter.

With regards to ANM,  I will attach all documents I feel are relevant to this entry.   What I gather and have ben told so far, much of which is documented evidence is that ANM performed an AT HOME NEUTER on a rescue that is illegal.  She also has been known to self crop ears and use glue to bind dogs ears to their own heads.  (image 6)

Her home has been raided by AC and other officials and a dead kitten (image 4) was found in a storage container along with 2-3 live kittens with lid securely attached and no air ventilation.   Another puppy was found dead and ANM stated the puppy died from Parvo, yet when a necropsy was done (image 1 ), the parvo test was negative but showed blunt force trauma to the puppy's skull which resulted in the death.

ANM had 25-30 cats living in a bedroom with no ventilation, and feces everywhere and the ammonia smell of urine was overbearing.  Many of the cats/kittens had illnesses as a result (image 5).

I have also attached a training video from youtube of ANM and her training methods.  Notice her kicking, slapping and jerking the dog in the video.  Notice how he seems submissive and scared of her. This is her admitted methods for training dogs.  She has been known to use her hand to muzzle puppies so they can't breath.  She has been known to use inhumane methods on cats and dogs of all ages.

BEWARE OF ASHLEY NICOLE MILLER.  She "rescues" animals from all over the USA, and should not be trusted.  She is a monster and all animals in her care are at risk.
