The dog owner caught on camera dragging, choking and slapping his dog is fessing up and apologizing … and the abused pup is getting a new home.
Jeffrey Previte, CEO of an environmental consulting firm in L.A., tells TMZ … he truly regrets the way he attempted to discipline his dog, Bici, and he’s sorry and heartbroken over the incident.
Jeffrey tells us he lost his temper and “took unreasonable and unjustifiable action” … and he’s owning up to the video while also saying it doesn’t represent the time he spent with Bici.
Previte says he’s sorry to Bici and anyone disturbed by the video … he also tells us he loves the dog and they’ve had “an exceptional life full of nature and affection.”
As we reported … surveillance footage from Jeffrey’s Santa Monica apartment building showed him snapping on the dog last month, and his employer launched an investigation when the disturbing video surfaced.
Jeffrey tells us he’s accepting responsibility by taking a leave of absence from his job, enrolling in an anger management program and spending time and money helping animal rights orgs. He also says he’s placed Bici with a loving family.
Jeff says he’s “an imperfect person” and hopes for some level of forgiveness in time as he tries to become a better human and grow as a man.
