Alice Mayor Grace Saenz-Lopez and her twin sister were indicted Friday morning on felony charges for allegedly lying to authorities in an attempt to conceal the dog... Her twin, Gracy Garcia, is a school board member.

The feud started in the summer, when Rudy Gutierrez and Shelly Cavazos asked Saenz-Lopez to dog-sit while they took their four children to an amusement park. Puddles had gotten trapped under their home weeks earlier and ravaged by fleas. He was deathly ill when the family decided to go away, Gutierrez and Cavazos admit.

After one day, the mayor called them with terrible news: Puddles was dead.

She argues that the dog's owners have forsaken the right to keep the canine because they left when he was ill and needed them most.

"Now it's a statewide joke: 'You're from Alice? Your mayor steals dogs,' " Perez said.

Sheesh.

Synova বলেছেন...: If the owners were abusing the dog, why not go with that?

"Puddles was deathly ill. *I* took it to the vet. *I* got rid of the fleas. And then I had to bug bomb the house. *I* put $xx dollars into that dog. It most certainly would have died if I hadn't done those things. Puddle's owners should be arrested for animal cruelty."

"I could just tell them that the dog died or I could have called the police."

And the owners admit the dog was deathly ill?; ৪/২/০৮, ৯:৫৪ AM

Peter Hoh বলেছেন...: It's a conspiracy, I tell you. The real dog was whisked away to a secret CIA facility in Ohio. I mean, c'mon. This happened in Texas. The President is from Texas.

Alice, Texas. You can't spell "Alice" without "CIA."

Can't you see the connection?; ৪/২/০৮, ১১:৩০ AM
Josephine বলেছেন...: Get this the owner is a nurse. Come on pass the news. A nurse, a real nurse and she could not take care of this about to die dog. This is sad, all nurses are taught to see signs and symptoms way before they happen. This is animal crulty in the highest degree. They need to go to jail...I sure wouldn't want her for a nurse...Pass it on...; ১৭/২/০৮, ৭:৪৪ PM
Josephine বলেছেন...: The owner of the dog is a nurse. Now we know that nurses look for signs and symptoms way before something is wrong. Apparently she didn't care. Think about this, why didn't she call authorities when it was reported the dog was dead. She believed it was dead because it was on death row. This X-Mayor had compassion on this poor animal and was willing to lose self to save something she believed in. Something that most people would never do. Thank God she saved one of Gods' little creatures. I sure would not want to be in a hospital with that nurse.....bad girl...; ১৭/২/০৮, ৭:৪৮ PM
