Pet dog chopped in half, locals in fear. - Polidicks

[quote]The theft and mutilation of a family's pet dog which was found chopped in half has frightened residents of a small west Victorian town. Rascal, a small brown Pomeranian, is believed to have been stolen from its owners' property in Nhill, a town with a population of about 2000. The owner of the dog was mowing the lawn when he stumbled on the rear half of his mutilated pet, which had been thrown back over the fence. A local woman, who did not wish to be named, said the shocking attack was the talk of the town and had put fear into locals. "For somebody to be able to do that to a dog, it just sends general fear that we have somebody in the community that could do that," the woman said on Thursday. "It's absolutely disgraceful that it could happen in a community like ours. It's only a small town. "To find it happening in your own backyard, it's frightening. "It's certainly got the town fearing." Nhill Senior Constable Les Newton said the family had two small children - a toddler and a baby - and had been deeply distressed by the mutilation of their pet. Only half of the dog's body has been found, he said, and he appealed for anyone with information to contact police. "They are very upset," said Snr Const Newton. He said the incident was "very worrying" for the community and the family did not know why they would be targeted. "We've never had anything like this happen in the town before," he said. The dog was stolen at some time last Friday night and its remains were found on Saturday morning. Another local, who did not wish to be identified, said the family had an idea about who was responsible for the attack because they had made a threat against the dog in the past. RSPCA Victoria chief inspector Greg Boland said whoever was responsible for the attack could face a fine of $25,000 and a two-year jail term. He said the attack was at the high end of the animal cruelty spectrum and he had never heard of a similar case in Australia. "It's what I would consider to be an obscene case of animal cruelty," he said. "It beggars belief that somebody could do that sort of thing and if they could do that to a defenceless animal, who knows what they are capable of."[/quote] Source: [url]http://news.ninemsn.com.au/national/8284179/vic-family-finds-pet-dog-chopped-in-half[/url] That lil' Rascal.

The people that used to live behind my uncle caught his neighbor's cat and chopped it's back legs off at the knees and tossed it back in her yard. she took it to the vet and had it put down. these same people got busted for assloads of weed and a few grams of meth. they were selling the weed and guess what? the police hit paydirt that day, there was a roster with names of everyone they sold to.

Can't even read the OP. I hate people.

Maybe they shouldn't of left the dog outside like an animal :downs:

If someone ever killed a pet of mine, I would be so unimaginably upset. I really feel for the family.

That's fucking horrible. Is it wrong that I wish to see pictures?

Whenever I read about something bad happening to a dog, I feel so sad because I think what if it happened to my dog [IMG]http://i.somethingawful.com/forumsystem/emoticons/emot-smith.gif[/IMG]

The lack of empathy some people possess makes me sad.

[QUOTE=Meatloaf;31664339]That's fucking horrible. Is it wrong that I wish to see pictures?[/QUOTE] yes

I hate it when people say things like "I never expected something like this in our small town", because people aren't fucking crazy in small towns. If this happened in my city nobody would care, I mean they'd [i]care[/i] but it certainly wouldn't be the talk of the town. Sometimes humans are crazy, expect it.

Hardcore.

Also, in a small town (especially as low as 2000) you are likely to actually [I]know[/I] the person who did it, which makes it really creepy.

Nah that's not true, I live in a town of ~700 people and most people wouldn't even know 50 of the others.

Disgusting, hopefully they are caught and thrown in jail ASAP and given treatment for their obvious mental health issues. My sympathy to the dog owners.

Fuck this shit, I'm out

How the hell do you even steal a dog without the owners noticing? Maybe if they crept into the garden and took it? But that, along with the fact that someone had made a threat against the dog in the past makes you wonder about the circumstances, whether the dog repeatedly escaped or wandered around on other peoples property. If there was a problem though they should have been in contact with animal control / the police or whatever. Cutting the dog in half is a ridiculously stupid and horrible thing to do.

That is just so utterly disgusting and it hurts to read the title alone. I can't read the OP, this is just so wrong.

Pomeranians are annoying. But I wouldn't cut one in half... I'd barbeque it.

I don't really like dogs. They dig your yard up, bark at nothing and often aggressive. Oh, and they are a bitch to walk, too. (Unintentional pun)

hopefully they will find the other half so their lives can go back to normal

I wonder where the other half is Seriously though, this makes me sick.

What makes is even sadder is that they can't bury him properly because they only found the back half.

Disgusting.

Pomeranians are fucking cute, why would someone cut one? Edit, offtopic Why people says im a furry when i have a pet dog?

What the actual ever-loving fuck of a "human" could do this?
