What's that cushion on its neck, looks better than the usual cone that they have
A piece of toast from pound land and a lot cheaper than 10 quid for the cone of shame from the vets, just stops her from licking the woundWhat's that cushion on its neck, looks better than the usual cone that they have
That's incredible.A beauty! Our Boo is blind and diabetic but seems happy enough,we inject her twice a day and it's all under control. A little walk,lots of hugs and her dinner and she's grand.
What a spineless coward. I hope he gets run over by a bus.They should string the ******* up by his b******s and why just a 5 year ban it should be permanent.
Ring doorbell footage shows Leigh man punching and kicking dog 12 times
View attachment 88163
A man filmed kicking and punching his dog 12 times in a 'nasty' attack on a Ring doorbell has been banned from keeping any animal for five years.
Michael Hilton, 61, carried out what was described as a ‘sustained physical attack’ on his pet lurcher Ben, which was captured on camera in Leigh, in December 2022.
Hilton was seen kicking Ben 11 times, with nine of such force the dog’s head and body jerked backwards from the impact.
He also struck the lurcher on his upper neck and shoulder region.
The footage was passed to the RSPCA which launched an investigation, and the 61-year-old was subsequently interviewed and pleaded guilty.
Describing the attack as ‘nasty’, magistrates imposed a deprivation order on Ben and banned Hilton, of Sanderson’s Croft in Leigh, from keeping any animal for five years.
He was also given a 12 month community order, 150 hours of unpaid work and ordered to pay £400 in costs.
Speaking after the conclusion of the case, Inspector Brooks said: “Mr Hilton’s actions towards his pet were totally unnecessary and unacceptable.
"Ben could neither escape nor defend himself from this assault and we’re grateful to the person that alerted us and enabled Mr Hilton to be held accountable for his actions”.
RSPCA inspector Vicki Brooks, who led the investigation for the animal welfare charity, said: “I saw the person forcefully kick, punch and stamp on the dog, striking the animal a total of 12 times with a foot and two times with a hand.
“The dog could be seen trying to back away from the person.
"It was clear that the feet and hands made significant contact with the dog."
The vet who examined the footage and gave evidence in the case said: “Ben was caused to suffer as a consequence of physical abuse.
"Suffering will have been experienced by this animal via mechanisms of fear and distress for a period of at least several minutes, possibly longer and pain for a period of several hours, possibly longer.
"In my opinion, the animal involved in this case has been caused to suffer.”
