A former vet clinic owner in Waunakee is facing animal abuse charges.
Dr. Wesley Arnett is facing a string of allegations from former workers at the Waunakee Veterinary Clinic, as well as investigators with the state’s Department of Agriculture. Arnett Dane County prosecutors have filed six counts of intentionally mistreating animals against Arnett. One former vet tech told police that Arnett smacked dogs in the head, slammed one against the wall, and pulled one dog’s muzzle so hard it left the dog bleeding from the mouth. The clinic’s new owners say they’ve cut ties with Arnett, and are disgusted by the charges.
