A U.S. Navy veteran in California has been accused of soaking two dogs with acid and gouging their eyes out. David Herbert, 36, was arrested Wednesday in Oceanside after authorities executed a search warrant of his home, Fox 5 San Diego reported. RETIRED VETERINARIAN FACING ANIMAL CRUELTY CHARGESHerbert is a disabled veteran who was honorably discharged from the Navy after six years of service, police said. The abuser reportedly would burn the dogs’ skin with acid or a similar liquid, gouged out one of their eyes and apparently tried to poison the dogs, Fox 5 reported. The dogs’ eyes had been so severely damaged that veterinarians had to surgically remove them.
