A father and son who were filmed laughing as they encouraged their dogs to tear animals to shreds will be released from prison in just a few weeks after being given light sentences today.

Ronald Guy, 63, and his son Lee, 42, both from Birkenhead in Merseyside, were branded 'absolutely inhumane' after filming themselves feeding live pigeons to ferrets, cutting off the heads of chickens with knives and setting a pack of dogs on a fox.

But the the pair were yesterday jailed for just 12 and 22 weeks respectively after admitting a total of seven animal cruelty offences at Wirral Magistrates' Court.

Disgusting. Should be locked away for years.

Not keen on seeing graphic content... I assume they will have been banned from keeping or owning animals? And they'll be the first ones the police turn to in future if something like this comes to light. In an ideal world someone would take them out somewhere quiet and let a pack of dogs dish out some real justice.

People who take enjoyment from seeing animals suffer, I would happily see torn limb from limb by their own animals

Curiosity got the better of me and I clicked the link.

All I will say is I would happily pay good money to see these people put in a pit with hungry lions and torn limb from limb.

That actually used to happen years ago in Italy, and it was free to the public.
