Make it a felony with a minimum of 2 years in jail for the intentional keeping of any animal as a slave (aka pet). This would also prevent the person from "owning" another life, an animal, and put a stop any future abuse. Most animal owners walk away with not even a fine for such a horrible act of complete control of another life. By making owning an animal a Felony with a minimum of 2 years of jail time we could reduce this cruelty.
