The Cruelty Investigation department of the Humane Society of Greater Rochester has charged a Henrietta man with one count of cruelty to animals.

On April 26, the Humane Society responded at the request of the Monroe County Sheriff�s Office.

The dog was turned over to the Humane Society of Greater Rochester and taken to Lollypop Farm for treatment.
