[Debs.]

I`ve been terribly upset tonight, after reading this story about a lovely dog, named 'Star'.....

.....I know 'we' humans can be wickedly cruel, but this plumbs new depths of depravity!

I didn't click the link, I don't need to be reminded how sick some members of the human race can be.

  Unbelievable

Me too

Yes, unfortunately it makes me think of the sadder stories that we don't get to hear about where the poor dogs/cats/other animals etc, aren't found and rescued.

I'd genuinely do the same to them. They deserve to suffer. Human in form only

[Dishevelled Den]

I'll take your word for it Deb - I really couldn't look at anything like that and maintain composure.

[The Red Baron]

terrible Debs.

For all those who did not click the link, let me assure you that the "victim" has turned out to be a star (literally!). Whilst the injuries and treatment she suffered were horrendous, let us look on the bright side: that she was rescued, cared for, and survived, all courtesy of humans that really care.

When you read the comments, you will soon see that that everyone quite rightly despises this ill-treatment. There are still more good people than bad around. Thank God.

True.

I can't really think of the words to describe how sick this sort of behaviour makes me....

Me neither
Let's hope she makes a good recovery and finds a decent home.

[Jimbob]

Cowardly!

[russ0205]

Lets just hope that justice will be done the people that do this need the same in return.

Since moving to Spain, I have been shocked at the levels of suffering inflicted on animals. From unwanted dogs being thrown out of moving vehicles to malnutrition/neglect.

I think it is perhaps to do with animals not having souls in deeply religious countries.

We had not long been here when a local decided his poorest performing hunting dog had to be killed. He handed his shotgun to his 12 year old son and said kill it. And he did. Right of passage? Who knows.

In a war situation folk (mostly men) can find an outlet for their normally repressed desires. In peacetime I think it gets vented on animals and women.
