Police say Richard Pennington, 37, told them he was depressed over a recent break up and he stabbed the animal with a steak knife in a fit of rage.
He told police that he was sitting on the kitchen floor when the dog approached him. He stabbed the dog once.
The dog left for the bedroom where the owner found it later in the day.
He faces animal cruelty charges and is being held without bail.
A compilation of daily news articles from around the United States about deaths (including both people and animals) that appear to occur in the context of a past or present intimate relationship, focusing on 2009-present. (NOTE: this blog is limited to incidents that appear in the media and are captured by our search terms. We recognize this is not an exhaustive portrayal of all deaths resulting from intimate violence.) When is society going to realize intimate violence makes victims of us all?
