Giving pot to Pomeranian gets Illinois Man 60 days in jail.
A 19 year old Wheaton Illinois man, Emanuel Lopez, has been sentenced to 60 pays in jail and 30 months of probation for the theft of a $1500 Pomeranian puppy from a pet store. The dog was returned to the store after 3 days, but while the dog remained with Lopez, he blew marijuana smoke into its face until it passed out unconscious.
