REVERE, Mass. (WPRI) — A Revere man pleaded guilty to chaining his dog up on the edge of a beach and leaving him at the mercy of the next high tide, according to Suffolk County District Attorney Kevin Hayden. Elisa Pacheco-Osario, 29, was convicted Wednesday on charges of animal cruelty and dog tethering. Pacheco-Osario was arrested shortly after his dog was found chained to an exposed steel rod protruding from the Winthrop Parkway ramp at Short Beach in August 2021. The dog, which authorities described as a pit bull mix, had a thick metal chain around his neck with a heavy rock attached to it.
