[Gpdd] MISC: Convicted animal abuser

[Birdie Horn]

If you want the pic of this man I will email it to you 
  as well as the rest of the story. 
  He has set up a dog walking service at the 
  Long Beach dog park
  Convicted animal abuser Shon Rahrig has 
  moved to Long Beach. He uses craigslist 
  to find animals to torture, both posting 
  and answering ads. He favors calico cats 
  but will also take kittens, adult cats, puppies 
  and older dogs instead. He tends to focus 
  on 'free to good home' ads so he can get 
  free victims. He is believed to post ads full 
  of manipulative lies (see example at end). 
  In addition to craigslist he attends adoption 
  events and shelters and may use newspaper 
  and bulletin board ads so please warn 
  non-craigslist people you know. 

His acts of torture are extremely disturbing. 
  He has been doing this for years and moves 
  to new locations (even across the country) 
  when the locals learn too much. In addition to 
  jail and probation  included the decision that he 
  could never again own living things and had to 
  attend mandatory counseling. Instead he 
  skipped town and moved to another state 
  where police, neighbors, shelters and 
  animal control did not know him! 
  This was after pleading guilty. 

HE GETS HIS VICTIMS ON CRAIGSLIST. 
  DO NOT GIVE OR SELL HIM ANIMALS. 
  CALL ANIMAL CONTROL IF YOU 
  ENCOUNTER HIM. WARN OTHERS. 

As of April 2006 he was known to live at: 
5901 East Ocean Blvd, Unit D 
Long Beach, CA 90803 

Shon Rahrig was spotted at an 
  adoption event in the area. 
  Don't assume you won't encounter him!
