Prodigy, 21, about to become doctor
SULTAN, Wash., Oct. 25 (UPI) -- The "Dog Whisperer" is among the people wanting to help a suburban Seattle pit bull allegedly sexually abused by its owner find a new home.
Cesar Millan -- the "Dog Whisperer" from television's National Geographic Channel, who has been called the Dr. Phil for canines -- has said he would evaluate Sara to see if she can again be someone's pet, said Susan Michaels, co-founder of Pasado's Safe Haven animal-welfare group of suburban Sultan, Wash.
Animal-control officers Friday seized the dog and a male pit bull named Scooter from the home of 26-year-old Michael Patrick McPhail after prosecutors charged him with first-degree animal cruelty the day before.
McPhail's wife told prosecutors she caught her husband having sex with the female dog on the back porch, The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
She snapped photos of the incident with her cell-phone camera, court documents state.
McPhail pleaded not guilty, posted bail and was released, sheriff's spokesman Ed Troyer said.
