Sorry David and anyone else this post upset, i usually don't post this kind of stuff, because it is too hard for even me to read, but I remember this case well, and was so pleased to hear he may get a custodial sentence, it does not seem near enough one year, but to be honest it probably is a first, and even yet it is not definite he will get that, I hope he does not get home detention, that is far too easy, he needs to be made an example of, and learn from what he did.

I am disgusted as the rest of you by his cruel actions, sometimes I wonder if these people and I use people lightly, are very intelligent, they don't seem to realise a Dog does not understand that getting loose from its chain is going to annoy anyone,(not that it should) but did in his case, he needs to learn anger management for one, the poor thing was probably chained up for hours anyhow, that would not suprise me, but to deliberately do that to a defenceless animal, is unforgiveable, I would dearly like him to suffer the same as the dog did, but of course that is also inhumane, but truth be told , that is really how I feel about these type of situations.
