Two Fond du Lac residents accused of leaving a harmess on their pet dog for so long it became embedded in the animal’s body have been bound over for trial. Amy Shaw and Daniel Eisenach waived their preliminary hearings Friday in Fond du Lac court to a charge of mistreatment of animals. Amanda Muellenbach is charged with aiding a felon. According to a criminal complaint a Fond du Lac woman purchased the Pit Bull mix on Facebook as a Christmas present for her family and noticed an infected gash on the dog. Fond du Lac Animal Shelter Manager Renee Webb says the dog has recovered and is living with a new owner. According to a criminal complaint a veterinarian says the harness must have been placed on the dog when he was a puppy and the dog’s growth made the harness embedded in the skin.
