Crawfordville man charged with animal cruelty

The Wakulla County Sheriff’s Office has charged a 39-year-old Crawfordville man with animal cruelty in connection with the death of his brindle bulldog.

Police issued a warrant for Nathaniel Harris for two misdemeanor counts of cruelty to animals and abandonment after finding his bulldog dead in his yard on June 30th.
It was determined that Harris moved out of the home three weeks before and left the dog chained to a post with a 14 pound, nine foot long logging chain.
The dog did not have food or shelter near where he was chained and ultimately choked itself to death with the chain.
Harris is already facing charges in Leon County for grand theft, petit theft and dealing in stolen property.
Leon County has placed a hold on Harris to return to Wakulla County and face the charges of animal cruelty.
