Man caught on CCTV 'dumping' limping pet dog in Dorset - Polidicks

The silence of that video just worsened it's impact on my heart :saddowns: If I was in Dorset I would totally take ownership of that dog, poor thing.

OH MY GOD, 2 animal cruelty cases in a month. BROKEN BRITAIN!!!111

[QUOTE=johan_sm;24960679]Personally I am not angry at the one who did it. No violence was done to dog, and it was found and is now going to get a new home. Sure the owner did bad, but there's nothing that would even remotely deserve jail or "omgomg rip his guts out and then rape his corpse"[/QUOTE] Instead of just leaving the dog, he could've just dropped her off at a animal shelter or something.

[QUOTE=Stupideye;24962081]Instead of just leaving the dog, he could've just dropped her off at a animal shelter or something.[/QUOTE] He could but he didn't. Sure it's not the best thing to do, but it's not worth jailing or ripping him apart.

Some people just plain out suck

Here we go again.

oh boyoboyoboy more over reactions

Well, I just hope the man gets prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

No one could guarantee that it would have been found - It might have starved out in the wild for all he knew. I just hope he get whatever punishment he deserves. I'm angry at anyone who knowingly mistreats a living being.

Shame. Poor act.

I gave my cat a hug.

That dog is adorable, I would take her in if I lived close enough. :frown: Poor thing.

aww what a pretty dog

If the dog was in my area, I would genuinely look into rehoming her. She looks like such a good little dog.

I can't actually watch the video, but can't they get the number plate off the car on the CCTV? Or is it too low res / too far away?

A puppy dying is not news. Nobody gives a fucking shit. Quit trying to find meaning in your hopeless lives through "cute" things.

Putting animals down is expensive, keeping them in cages until someone wants to take it is unlikely but purposely dumping it in front of a camera for a news source to find out will get that dog a home. It was going to die in a cage or something anyway, so it probably has a better chance

Fucking asshole.. I'd take that dog any day.

I like how I've never seen a general discussion thread about people dumping unwanted animals off but when ONE GUY does it everyone freaks out "I'M GONNA KILL HIM. STAB HIM. PUT HIM IN JAIL FOREVER." You're just taking a stand on it because it's right in front of your face. Stop trying to come off as some sort of amazingly good person and stop being a hypocrite. When is the last time you've tried to do anything about animal dumping?

*sigh* fucking again? Lets just home when hes like 90 years old some asshole whos his caretaker dumps him and drives away- or he gets run over by one of those fucking massive British buses.

[QUOTE=Pretiacruento;24959864][URL="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-dorset-11381878"]Source[/URL] (vid after the break) [release][B]A man is being sought after he was caught on CCTV appearing to dump a dog in Dorset.[/B] The man is seen apparently taking the dog for a walk before he heads back to a car which drives off leaving the pet unable to catch up due to a limp. The footage was taken on a camera at offices owned by British Marine Technology in Weymouth last Friday. The council is trying to rehome the dog, named Ginger, and trying to find the man. The footage shows him getting into a rear seat of the car, suggesting at least two other people were present at the time. Ginger, a Shetland cross terrier and about eight years old, was collected by wardens from Weymouth and Portland Borough Council. Ian Lewis, dog warden, said: "Her claws were overgrown to the extent they were digging into her pads, which was causing her to limp and pain. "I couldn't believe it when I saw the footage - this was a callous act and beyond belief. "It may have been an old person's dog who had died and the new owners didn't want her or maybe someone thought she would cost lots in vets' bills. "But she is in fine health, absolutely beautiful and has settled in really well. "I have spoken to the RSPCA who said they will be seeking prosecution." The maximum sentence for causing unnecessary suffering to an animal is six months in prison and a £20,000 fine. The man seen on the CCTV is described as white, about 6ft tall, and he was wearing blue jeans and a brown top. He was in a blue Kia Rio hatchback.[/release] What is wrong with british people dumping animals, first a woman dumping a cat and now this?! WTF?! [highlight]*rage*[/highlight][/QUOTE] It's not just the Brits. It's everyone. The Brits just have zero privacy with the million CCTV cameras.

People are a bunch of asses.

I am serious, 90 is REALLY old, and just living until that age is an achievement.
