Dog hacked to death with an axe on Valentines Day

Foxhound38

We haven’t got the full report yet but the initial inspection shows the dog had a fractured skull, punctured ribs, multiple broken bones and a broken skull,” Webb said. "You can see from the photos we took that the axe went right into the dog’s head"

Seems the pond scum that did this to the poor animal also made violent threats against the female Animal Welfare inspector when she visited to investigate.

Would it be out of order for me to say that I hope karma catches up with the "person" who visited such suffering on the defenceless animal in full kind and worse?

Cannot understand how anybody could hurt an animal like that

Saw this in one of the redtops today. Picture of the poor bastard'n dead dog and all. Whoever did this will repeat his actions if not put down himself beforehand

Unrequited puppy love?

If someone can do this to an animal then it's not going to be a far leap for them to bring serious harm to another person.

Foxhound38

I wonder will he even be prosecuted? With our barbaric animal cruelty laws, I wouldn't hold my breath

DarkJager

I'd love to get my hands on the **** that did this and torture him very very slowly.

YbFocus

Christ almighty how can people do this kind of thing, it makes me sick that people can do this.

What is going wrong with this world!!!!

No normal person could - it would pretty much take a clinical psychopath, and that means this man should almost certaintly be locked up for the good of society

CreepingDeath

I'm guessing it's some auld fella from a farming background used to chopping the heads off chickens or the like.

That some old-school farmer/hunting types are probably used to killing their own chickens/turkeys/pigeons/rabbits etc for home consumption.
So they're used to putting down animals.

And I'm not condoning it in any way, it's savage... just trying to comprehend the possible thinking behind it.

And what as a farmer putting down his own animals have in common with this barbarity?

Thats an insult to pond scum in fairness. The individual is clearly not right in the head, no mentally healthy person would carry out such an act.

What difference does it make if the dog was killed on Valentines Day??





Unless Hallmark had something to do with it

No difference, just pointing out the date. Could have said Feb 14th but this seemed easier

I highly doubt it. For one thing, he was in a housing estate, not out on a farm or anything. Also, by the sounds of how brutal it was, doesn't strike me as a simple case of "putting the animal down". I'm more inclined to thing the guy is a nutcase.

In which case he needs to be locked up for the good of the community. If a conviction can't be sorted on animal cruelty grounds (because we live in a strange old country that doesn't take the welfare of animals seriously it seems) then surely the Animal Welfare Inspector who was violently threatened could press charges?

If that's what it takes to get him punished I'd be all for it. The threatening probably wouldn't get him much unless he did something like swing the axe at her, but he doesn't deserve to get off scott free.

I can't believe people are making jokes about this, the dog's parents could be reading this thread.

Section 6 of the public order act...he could be locked up for 3 months & fined €500 if this happened in a public place {outside of the home}

Too lenient, he should be skinned and thrown in a bath of salt water.

Well even if he just gets a few nights - if karma exists I would hope that the other inmates are well aware of what their new fellow resident did to that defenceless animal. At least give him a decent hiding that he won't want repeated in a hurry!

Yes, that's the answer to mental illness.

Nah, feck that excuse - he knew this was wrong, and if he didn't then he's a danger to the community and needs to be locked away for his own and everyone elses good

Mysteriouschic

I didn't click the link as I really don't want to see the pictures. How anyone could do that it is awful the person should get sent to jail for life it is "murder" in a way. If this was done to a person it would be different reaction it is still just as bad .

Is it strange that I feel more sympathy when this sort of thing happens to an animal more so than a person?

DarkJager

I don't care if he's mentally ill, if he's capable of such an act he should be put down. Mental illness is not a sympathy card you can play for actions like this.

shanered

Whatever about the guy that did this, it strange that people are so quick to call for murder, putting down and torture of this guy. I agree with possible conviction and/or imprisonment, but some posters going a little to far.

Valentines Day is clearly to blame.

A very sick and warped individual to visit such wanton cruelty on a little dog. Animal cruelty laws really need to be brought up to date and and to speed.

Jail time should definitely be among the options available for punishment.

the organisation got a call on its emergency hotline on 14 February to a housing estate where they were told a dog was being attacked.

Know many farmers ploughing up the tarmac on housing estates do you........

space_man

i certainly wouldn't want my kids living anywhere close to that freak.
we have serious issues regarding the (mis)treatment of animals. this is just another horrific example.

a very sad reflection of our society i'm afraid.:mad:

Like small children, animals can't speak or tell someone that they're being maltreated and they (particularly dogs) look up to humans and trust them.

I think that's why people get enraged at cruelty to animals and kids.

That brought a tear to me eye.

But it is very true. But also, dogs in particular are very intelligent. A lot more intelligent than humans give them credit for..

Agreed. It was a horrible thing to do, but at the end of the day it's a dog, not a human.

It's not a human. But at the same time dogs/animals should be treated as fairly.

Foxhound38

If this happened to a human he would be named and shamed. Not only did he brutally butcher a defenceless little dog, he threatened an Animal rights Inspector. The filth should be named and shamed

Oh once its not human its ok to torture and kill it as if animals dont feel any pain. I have no pity what so ever if this piece of scum had the same done to him.

Welcome to Boards.ie, where we don't know the meaning of the word hypocricy and wouldn't believe you if you tried to explain it to us.
