The dog, named Lucky, died hours after the 'gruesome act' from 'burn shock and organ failure,' according to the Houston Humane Society.
When two Texas dog owners went outside on Friday morning, they found their pet engulfed in flames and severely beaten, according to local authorities.
Police were called to a home in the city's Kashmere Gardens neighborhood at roughly 4 a.m. Friday by the dog's owners, who said that they had found their pet, Lucky, on fire and critically beaten, the Houston Police Department told local media. HHS told local media that whoever set Lucky on fire appeared to have used an accelerant to commit the act, the local outlet reports.
