Dog shot 40 times and buried alive....Update #14 :(

I was left stunned and speechless myself. The last report was that Star was doing well and it looked hopeful for a forever home. This is beyond sad...at least the suffering is over. I hope the monsters who did such a horrid thing will be brought to justice.

Man admitted in court that he shot and buried Star.

in fear every day in prison.

That is.............. I don't even have words. The previous owner gave her to this guy after having her for TEN years because she started shedding fur! OMG!!! And then he proceeds to kill her just because she was "old" at 10 years of age.

I am just sick to my stomach right now.

He claimed he shot Star because she was old. She was 10 years old and was called Buttons by a previous owner. The owner had had the dog for 10 years but gave it to Mr Vella after the dog started shedding fur.

No words for this. This poor excuse for a man, maybe when he gets old, someone can do the same thing to him.

I had a hard time with this man's reason for doing what he did. The sentence he got and the fine he paid wasn't enough as far as I'm concerned. It just doesn't make sense to me that anyone could be so cruel as to give their dog away because it was old but to have the other owner shoot it because it shed drove me over the edge. Sometimes I wonder where these sickos come from, heartless cruel poor excuses for human beings.
