Subject: Mistreatment of Animal in the 600 Blk of Frederick

OSHKOSH, WI (October 09, 2025): The Oshkosh Police Department is investigating an animal complaint in which an adult male severely injured his dog in the 600 block of Frederick Street in the City of Oshkosh.

On 10/07/2025 at approximately 08:49 PM, Officers were dispatched to an animal complaint that occurred at a residence in the 600 Block of Frederick Street. Officers received information that a video had been recorded of a 39-year-old male from Oshkosh injuring his dog. The video showed the dog lying on the floor, bleeding from its mouth and head. The video then went on to show the male kicking the dog in the head hard enough to move the dog’s body. The dog is described as a young female Pitbull. Officers located the dog inside of the home with a head injury as well as three large lacerations on her head in various stages of healing.

Six other dogs were also located inside of the residence. All seven dogs were taken into custody by the Oshkosh Area Humane Society. None of the other dogs had visible injuries. The injured female Pitbull was taken to a local animal hospital for further medical evaluation and medical treatment.

Officers from the City of Fond du Lac Police Department attempted to locate the suspect at his place of employment but he was not located at that time. We want to thank the Oshkosh Area Humane Society and the City of Fond du Lac Police Department for their assistance with this incident.

Upon further investigation, Detectives from the Oshkosh Police Department were advised that the suspect had made threats of physical injury to a witness. Detectives were able to locate the suspect on 10/09/2025 at approximately 11:06 AM walking in the area of Division Street and Irving Avenue in the City of Oshkosh. He was taken into custody for Mistreating Animals, Felony Bail Jumping, and Battery or Threats to a Witness.

Animal cruelty and neglect will not be tolerated in our community- these acts are both inhumane and unacceptable. Our department remains steadfast in our efforts to ensure all members of our community are safe- especially our most vulnerable. We commend the citizens who reported this incident to us and urge the community to continue their vigilance and report any signs of abuse to us.

If anyone has information regarding this incident, they are encouraged to contact the Oshkosh Police Department at 920-236-5700. If you have information about this incident, but wish to remain anonymous, please contact the Winnebago County Crime Stoppers at 920-231-8477; or through the P3 App.

Kira and I completed our AKC Scentwork Exterior Excellent title last weekend, with a 3rd place, and also got our first Master leg in containers with a 3rd place. At the Excellent level, there are 3 hides in every search.
Kira and I have so much fun doing Scentwork, and our teamwork continues to grow with experience. She is sweet and smart! ❤️🐾

As you progress in Scentwork training and competition, you have searches where you don't know how many hides there are, or if there are any. So, I have to learn when Kira is done and call "finish." You can hear in my voice that I am not very confident. I say "finish??" 😆😆 It is definitely a learning process. 😊😊
