Topic: shocked !!!!

[wilko]

I heard something really distressing on the news a couple of nights ago, an old couple were out giving the 12 year old collie cross, her evening constitutional, they called into a Tesco store, as they did most nights, and tied her up outside.  When they came out she was gone. an investigation of CCTV cameras, showed a man running across the car park with the dog, and more cameras showed them running through the town,the dog struggling now.  She was found dead later in a beck, the vet said her injuries were consistant with great a fall, the bastard had thrown her from a bridge.

just shocked.....................how must they feel.............. ???  :(

This is so sad, can't believe the cruelty that goes on in this world.That poor couple must be devastated.My heart goes out to them and their beloved trusting dog.

I can't think for the life of me why anyone would even think of doing this! Surely there was no pleasure to be gained for this warped person. He sounds a danger to animals and humans alike-best put down I think.

I belong to a dog rescue group. It never ceases to amaze us some stuff that people do do our loved pets. Just when you think you've heard everything, it sinks to a new depth again.

This story was in our local paper this week. Read if you dare. Can't believe its just 20 mins from my home. I will be watching to see what she gets on the 19th. Evil piece of scum.

I snuggle up with my 2 rescues and tell them how lucky they are, the worst that happens to them is that we have to go to work and leave them, every other week. I often think when I'm snuggling with them, that one is probably being ill treated right now somewhere, but we never know where.
Its a very sad world.

Nooo! Have only just read this. Sick or what. The scary thing is that many of these animal abusers get let off because they have children. Like the woman a couple of years ago who put her kitten in a microwave to punish it for peeing on the floor.  The defence stated that as she was a single parent with two kids it would damage them to be separated from her loving care. WTF?? I think automatic neutering and removal of all children should be par for the course in animal cruelty cases.

Let's hope he goes to jail. There's quite a lot of animal lovers in there...some of 'em big lads!
