Some serious messed up doo-doo

ST. PAUL, Minnesota (AP) -- A 17-year-old girl who spent weeks looking for her missing dog unwrapped a box left on her doorstep and found the pet's severed head inside, authorities said.

Homicide investigators were looking into the case because of the "implied" terroristic threat, St. Paul Police Sgt. Jim Gray said. The Humane Society of the United States said Wednesday it was offering a reward of up to $2,500 for information leading to an arrest and conviction.

"This was extraordinarily heinous," said Dale Bartlett, the Humane Society's deputy manager for animal cruelty issues. "I deal with hundreds and hundreds of cruelty cases each year. When I read about this case, it took my breath away. It's horrible."

After Crystal Brown's 4-year-old Australian shepherd mix, Chevy, wandered away last month, she put up "missing" posters in her neighborhood and went door to door looking for him. She called the St. Paul animal shelter and rode the bus there several times.

"I felt empty," Crystal told the Star Tribune of Minneapolis. "I couldn't talk to anyone. He was my dog. It was just me and him. ... I told him everything and he never shared any of my secrets."

Two weeks ago, a gift-wrapped box was left at the house Crystal shares with her grandmother. The box had batteries on top, and a note that said "Congratulations Crystal. This side up. Batteries included."

Crystal opened the box and found her dog's head inside. The box also contained Valentine's Day candy.

Crystal screamed when she saw her dog's face.

"She was just hysterical," said Crystal's grandmother, Shirley Brown. "She was screaming. She said, 'Grandma, it's my dog's head!'

"I said, 'no it can't be!"'

Authorities say the case is an isolated incident and the suspect likely knew the family. A motive is unclear.

"This was so cruel," Crystal said. "This is one sick, twisted person."

She now has a new puppy, another Australian shepherd. She's named it Diesel. "Hopefully, he'll be my best friend," Crystal said.

That story inferiates me and makes me wanna cry at the same time.

Even if you have some sort of beef with someone, dont involve innocent animals... Thats just evil and cowardly if you ask me.

I'd like to go chop off the head of whoever did this myself. What a sick pathetic individual.

I am a big time animal lover and completely feel for this poor girl. That must have been so tramatic for her. I think I would have had a heart attack. Animals can be like members of the family.. and the pain of losing one can be equally as painful, especially in such a vicious manner.

I hope they catch the disgusting pig(s)

Absolutely - when I came across that I was just speechless. What is the world coming to? Plus I have this sinking felling it'll turn out to be some ex-boyfriend who thinks he Vito Corleone or something.

This is....I can't even...I just don't...

I'm honestly speechless. Why would anyone do something like this? I work at an animal shelter, and animals are so incredibly important to me...I just don't even know what to say. I'm practically in tears.

I said it once, I said it again: People are assholes. It seems I hear a story on the news about animal cruelty atleast once a week now.

I hope they find this person and hang them by their toenails whilst they are flogged and then the fleas of a thousand shelter dogs infests his genitals.

actually as sick as this sounds

its sounds to me like a stalker case...

1. dog is the best friend and stalker gets jealous....
2. sends dogs head back as a kind of apology...
3. adds candy to show that he cares.....

I know it seems sick but it does fit with the methodology

"Upon opening the box, Ms. Brown was reported to exclaim, 'Chevy! You're back!'"
