GRANGER, Ind. (AP) - The Indiana attorney general has accused a northern Indiana veterinarian of abusing animals in her care.
The office of Attorney General Curtis Hill filed a nearly 100-point complaint in June with the state Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners against Dr. Jennifer Perusek of the Animal Clinic in Granger.
The complaint alleges Perusek routinely engaged in a pattern of kicking, hitting, slamming, dragging and choking animals from 2012 to 2016.
Perusek's lawyer released a statement saying his client vehemently denies the claims.
The civil complaint is against Perusek's veterinary license. Hill has recommended that the state veterinary board discipline Perusek.
