A 62-year-old Coventry man is facing felony animal A 62-year-old Coventry man is facing felony animal cruelty charges after police say a severely emaciated dog in his care had to be euthanized and four malnourished puppies were rescued from his home.

The case came to light Jan. 7 when a dog in “severe distress” was brought to the Coventry Animal Pound. The female dog was shockingly emaciated — hips, ribs and spine jutting through her skin. She was lethargic, unable to stand or even lift her head, and bleeding from her hind end.

Vets determined she had suffered prolonged and severe neglect. The damage was so extensive that the only humane option was euthanasia.

Animal Control and police traced the dog back to her owner, Michael J. Beausoleil, and went to his Coventry residence, where they found four puppies also in poor condition — malnourished and dehydrated.

The puppies were taken into custody and rushed for treatment. Unlike their mother, they survived. Authorities say all four have since been adopted.

Beausoleil was arraigned Feb. 11 in Kent County District Court on one felony count of unnecessary cruelty to animals — death resulting — and four misdemeanor counts of unnecessary cruelty tied to the puppies. He also faces a misdemeanor charge related to improper tethering.

He was released on $1,000 personal recognizance bail and ordered not to own any more dogs.

“This behavior is unacceptable and entirely avoidable,” Coventry Police Chief Benjamin Witt said, urging anyone who suspects animal abuse to contact authorities.
