'She's back wagging her tail': Mimi the dog who was sexually assaulted by a man is reunited with family

Resting up at home and apparently doing well, Mimi the dog who was sexually assaulted by a 28-year-old man is slowly regaining her strength.

Viciously attacked by Jenson Bolla-Sosa in Fort Lauderdale, white poodle mix Mimi apparently has retained the sweet temperament and soft curls she had before the sexual assault.

Back at home, Mimi was able to wag her tail at visitors keen to see how the five-year-old, 10 pound dog was doing in a crime which shocked the state of Florida.

Her owners declined to comment on the incident involving Bolla-Sosa, but it is known that the attack was witnessed and broken up by one of them.

It was on Sunday that Bolla-Sosa's sickening attack on Mimi was interrupted by her owner when he saw the Guatemalan native with his penis out penetrating the poodle mix.

When Mimi was grabbed away from Bolla-Sosa she was 'whimpering in pain', according to a statement taken by police at the time.

Initially attempting to resist arrest, Bolla-Sosa was taken in and charged with having sexual contact with animals.

Bolla-Sosa, 28, of Fort Lauderdale, was charged with knowingly having sexual contact with a dog, cruelty to an animal and resisting arrest without violence.

When he appeared in Broward County court, Judge John Hay considered denying the 28-year-old bail, the Sun Sentinel reported.



But assistant public defender Terry Conover said Bolla-Sosa had no prior record and should be granted bail, which was then set at $12,500.

Mr Conover said at the hearing: 'We have serious cases in here, Judge, that involve the abuse of women or the abuse of men, of human beings, and they are able to post bond.

'The facts of this case are not good. But comparing it to the abuse of a human being is not as significant.'

Judge Hurley disagreed and said: 'I think abuse of an animal in certain circumstances can be just as significant and troubling.'
