One by one, Shirk tied a rope around each of the 3-month-old mixed-breed pups and slammed them onto a concrete floor until they were dead, records state. Shirk, 27, of the 100 block of Green Park Road in Tyrone Twp., has been charged with three misdemeanor counts of animal cruelty. A dog Shirk owned had a litter of puppies in December, recorded state. He had sold all but four of them, records state. But when it came time to get rid of them, he couldn't find the fourth animal, records state. Court records don't say what happened to the fourth puppy. In February, one of Shirk's neighbors asked about the puppies, and police said Shirk replied that he "had to take care of them" because nobody bought them, records state. The neighbor called the state police. State police said Shirk told them he tied the pups up and beat them against the concrete floor, records state. Shirk's preliminary hearing has been scheduled for March 21 before District Judge Elizabeth Frownfelter. ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2007.
