Neighbor’s Dog Won’t Stop Barking, And This Vet’s Heinous Solution Shocks Police

Wanting to know and like your neighbors is nothing new.

Roman poet Horace wrote in the year 15 BC that “Your own safety is at stake when your neighbor’s wall is ablaze.”

Indeed, in an ideal situation, a neighborhood should be a bit like a family, where you watch out for each other.

Sometimes, just like with families, neighbors have disagreements. Tempers flare and arguments arise. But with communication and compromise, most things can be worked out.

A barking dog shouldn’t be a problem, for instance.

When Stacey Fitzner left for work one day after putting her 15-month-old English Bulldog Bruizer into his fenced yard to exercise while she was gone, she trusted that he would be safe.

She shouldn’t have.

Before her work shift ended, Bruizer would be at a veterinarian clinic fighting for his life…and the culprit absolutely stunned Stacey.

One of Fitzner’s family members found Bruizer lying in the yard, bleeding.

Shockingly, he had been shot in the head with the bullet entering the back of the head and exiting through the front.

“The dog was just shaken and in shock and still breathing and everything,” said family member Mike Giangrosso.

“He had his head up. I thought there may have been a chance they could have saved him.”

He was rushed to the Abadie Veterinarian Clinic, where the vet on duty found little hope for his survival.

They did the best they could, but the damage done was just too great.

“[The] entrance wound was right in the back of his head. [The] exit wound was right through the eye,” said Dr. Scott Abadie.

When the police were called to investigate, neighbors told them that one of their other neighbors, a woman named Kelly Folse, had been seen threatening Bruizer on many occasions.

Bruizer’s family told police that Folse had sent them threatening letters about Bruizer’s “constant barking.”

When police followed up on that lead, they found the culprit. Indeed, Folse admitted to shooting the dog.

It was shocking enough that a neighbor would go so far as to kill a dog in a neighbor’s fenced yard, but wait, this story gets a LOT worse…

Folse was a veterinarian! Sworn to ease the suffering of animals. Certainly not to make them suffer, and die.

The police were shocked when they learned all the facts of the case.

“This is crazy, a veterinarian shooting a dog of her next door neighbor. This is nuts. I don’t know how else to put it,” said interim Jefferson Parish Sheriff Joseph Lopinto.

Folse has since been dismissed from her position at the veterinary clinic, and rightfully so.

That probably is the least of her worries right now, though:

Besides being charged with aggravated cruelty to animals, she is also facing charges for illegal discharge of a firearm AND drug charges, WLIX reports.

Authorities found her in possession of a stash of illegal animal narcotics, although they did not find the gun used to kill Bruizer.

A growing number of caring individuals are demanding that those convicted of animal abuse should be required to enter an animal abuse registry in order to protect the lives of animals living in close vicinity.

Our condolences to Bruizer’s family. While we all can understand the frustration of hearing a dog’s constant barking, violence is certainly never the answer.
