Dogs leg chopped off

I'd be devastated if that was my dog, what a cruel thing to do to that innocent creature. :( If I had my way, in these cases of animal abuse or human abuse, I'd do exactly the same thing to the abuser.
 
I can get you folks discounted tickets to the Colosseum .....togas mandatory. Geeze, and I thought was I was pretty bloody minded.

I don't think psychos should be emulated for entertainment. Dangerous ones should be handled logically and sanely. Just shoot 'em cleanly and take them out of the equation, coldly, and efficiently. Far more civilized than acting exactly like them surely? I prefer revenge served cold and justice likewise.

That is a very strange story really, even stranger on 2nd reading.

A sadist would have done more than one swipe "... great force with a very sharp object,'' with an axe or machete. Or a sharp shovel?
No evidence was mentioned being found, even of intrusion, at all, and wouldn't her mother, who "was at home", have at least heard a prior disturbance of barks and then yelps from the poor bloody dog?. Where were the other dogs? silent?!
How does someone scale "high lattice" with a bloodied axe or machete without leaving a trace?

Why it's shoulder and leg? Were they trying for it's head and missed? but then why just one swipe? It wouldn't have been hard to line up for a finishing blow. Seems more an attack out of rage or fear than of cruelty for it's own sake.

Where did the leg go? The other dogs eat it? Why would someone take it away, along with the weapon, over the high fence?

Did they check the garden shovel?
It's all too very curious. Wish I hadn't read it now, I don't like the way it leads me to thinking unless it's even more poorly reported than usual.

Something more than we read is going on with this, which makes no difference to the poor unlucky little dog unfortunately.
 
Know what might be better?? Duct tape them to a tree in the swamp for a few days or more. Of course, it would be in Summer; with mosquitoes at their best and hungriest, and they would be nekkid. :triumphant: :popcorn: :devilish:

Shooting is too clean a death, unless you shoot them in the kneecaps first, then the elbows, then the gut. Such a clean death might lead others contemplating bizarre crimes to carry them out, on the premise that the worst that could happen is a bullet.

It's a fact that people fear facing a knife in a street confrontation more than a gun, and for good reason - the prolonged pain.

Even then, it depends upon the blade - a guillotine is too swift, too sure. Better to use a rusty butter knife.

There - how's THAT for sickness?

It struck me as being just incompetent reporting. They left out all the salient details that we Holmsians love to masticate. ;)
 
Mmmm, I thought it was leaving a lot of space between the lines personally. Why stress "High lattice surrounds the backyard and there seemed to be no sign of entry. Cheyanne's leg has not been found." So matter of factly unless the reporter was a bit curious too?

It states "Devastated owner Christine Kleiner said she can't imagine how her dog Cheyanne managed to drag herself the 20-metre distance from her back fence to under the house stairs." Have to admit I can't imagine that either. With a leg missing from, and including some, of the shoulder wouldn't it have bled out in minutes?

Most of these reporters just go troppo with the usual hyperbole and animal cruelty buzz words. It seems more thoughtfully, (subtley?) written than most.

But then enough monkeys with keyboards and time can produce the Enc.Brit. according to the law of averages.

One last thing ...

"The police have been contacted and the RSPCA is set to investigate today."

....how come the reporter was there before the police or the RSPCA? Who ya gonna call???

???
 
I've no idea how that all could have happened, but maybe the mother couldn't hear well, so didn't hear the dog if it cried?? Could the dog have gotten out, or been taken out of the fence (lattice..what is that; to me, that is wood, but must mean the wire fence in the background), so it got hurt somewhere else and then dragged itself home?? I don't see it mentioned if there was blood, or how much.

Might be possible - years ago, one of our cats had it's back legs cut off by farm machinery, and dragged itself home farther than the dog in the article. There wasn't much blood, but I was devastated, as was our daughter, as the cat was meowing pitifully, and we couldn't do anything to help him. I begged the neighbor to put him our of his misery, but he refused. I ended up calling the dogcatcher, but when he came out, a little dog escaped from his van, so he had to chase him down while the poor cat suffered. :(
Anyway, it's possible the dog in the article just wanted to survive, and somehow crawled to where it knew it would be safe. It will be interesting to see if they follow up on this story.
