Roseburg Police cited a man for second degree animal abuse on Thursday night.
Information from RPD said a witness contacted police after they allegedly saw the 33-year old man kick both his dogs at least ten times each, in the 1000 block of Southeast Pine Street. The witness claimed the man kicked the dogs primarily in the head and neck area, and that the abuse is an ongoing issue. The report said the witness provided video footage that showed the dogs being kicked, and whining in pain.
The animals were seized and taken to Saving Grace Pet Adoption Center. The man was released after being cited.
