The Warren County Sheriff's Office has arrested a Queensbury man after they say he threw his dog against a wall, leading to its death.

Joshua Millington, 28, was arrested Monday after an investigation into the alleged incident happening on September 14.

Millington is believed to have thrown the family's chihuahua against the wall, injuring it to the point where it had to be euthanized.

Deputies say the incident happened in front of a 14-year-old child.

Millington is charged with animal cruelty — a felony — and endangering the welfare of a child.

He was arraigned, and is due back in court next month.
