Can I have my step-fathers dog taken into care by an animal control agency?

Hunter; our Yellow Lab, has been locked in a pen outside for the last few months with nothing but a Travel Cage for shelter. I try to pay attention to him to cheer him up but I get in trouble for it. He is watered like once a day and is only fed once too. I live in ohio and the weather is getting really chilly and I am scared for him. I don't care if I get in trouble by my parents, as long as Hunter is in better care I will be happy

    Yes

    If he neglects or abuses the dog then take pictures then call Ac or HS and send them pictures and keep calling until they seize the dog and fine him. You can make it anonymous so he will never know how reported him

    Make an anonymous report to animal control. It's good that you want to do the right thing.

    Yes, if they can prove abuse, cruelty, and negligence.

    Your step-father may also be fined/jailed.
