Happily, thanks to the Internet, this is going to follow the bitch around for the rest of her life. If she didn't want the dog there are plenty of agencies that would have taken him for re-homing.

We are supposed to be the superior species, yes? When you own a pet you have a duty of care because we are supposed to be the superior species. By your reasoning Alex, everyone should be able to just torture and kill a dog with no consequences because sometimes dogs bite. It makes no sense.

The evil woman should be sterilised, the thought of her having children makes my blood run cold.

no, i never said people should do horrible things. i'm just saying we shouldn't be so shocked when we see evidence that humans are not so superior after all.

Hayley Cowan, 22, has been jailed for four months and banned from keeping animals for life following the incident last October.

umm

[AnnieK]

This girl lives about a mile away from me....such a short sentence is pretty appalling due to the severity of the torture this animal suffered...

[Samuel.]

Almost as infuriating as the thread title

[Kizzy]

Blurgh! What a bitch I'm glad she was found out, no it's nowhere near long enough.

[Kazanne]

And she is banned from keeping animals for life,lol, as if that will be complied with.

[Mystic Mock]

Murder in this country is not taken seriously full stop.

So sadly we'll not see people that murder animals being given longer sentences until we actually punish people that murder Humans first.

..awful thing but I also think that to do something like that, she quite possible wasn't a healthy mind so I hope that she gets the help that she needs rather than just a 'punishment'...

[Kazanne]

Not everyone who commits a crime is mental , just plain evil! She'll probably be out in a couple of weeks, and unfortunatley it will be down to the neighbours to make sure she never keeps another pet because the legal system doesn't check. The sentencing for animal cruelty in this country is pathetic.

I can't believe you are so cold and dismissive about the treatment this poor dog suffered.
It's people like you who make me realise that animals are preferable to people in lots of ways.

The woman who attacked the man on the train deserved her punishment
The matador deserved his punishment from the bull
The 'hunter' deserved the reaction for killing Cecil..

Why is this woman the only one singled out for sympathy, is it due to the fact he was just a dog?

[Livia]

Ammi always strives to see the good in people. Always. I don't recall her being any different with the train/matador/cecil stories. She's a very understanding and caring person who always tries to see both sides.

I haven't said she doesn't, in the recent threads discussing attackers and killers of animals this is the first to suggest that the aggressor may need help, I just wondered why this one.
It was not in any way a personal slur, there's no need to put a slant on it.

[Suze]

Poor Dog I have no sympathy for that woman at all.

....hmmm, I don't really understand what you're trying to say/what I'm being asked ...I don't believe that I made any comment at all in the hunter thread and I don't believe that there has been a 'punishment' yet either for his actions...I also made no comment in the matador thread..(and no punishment applied either..)... and the only reference I made to that at all was in another thread..(the train thread..)...to use an analogy of, if poking, prodding, taunting someone or something much more physically powerful than the instigator then they're going to probably come off the worse for wear...but those are both fight or flight reactions and not punishments...so no punishment to comment on there either and I have no idea whether charges are pending against the female involved, only that charges have been dropped against the male....

..so maybe you're asking me to comment on the thoughts of others and not my own with that question but then I'm confused with that as well as I'm struggling to find a post where any empathy has been expressed so that could be applied...and it wouldn't be something for me to comment on anyway/why other people think as they do on topics....


..anyways, no matter, it's not important, just quite confusing is all...

I didn't suggest you had commented on any of the threads I mentioned however the general consensus is that aggressors/killers are wrong...
That was my whole point, your post is the first to suggest there may have been an underlying reason for the action.
This woman was poking and prodding something more powerful than herself, the dog could have defended itself and attacked, it didn't and died.
There was no fight or flight reaction she just killed her dog, what can be done to help in this instance other than preventing her harming other animals?

The woman's a cow that deserves a longer sentence and that's all there is to say on this topic.

I'll never understand why some people see stories like this and think that they're justified in saying vile **** about the guilty party. How does it make them any better than the guilty party? Cruelty doesn't justify cruelty, it's just hypocritical.

That's how emotion gets you especially if you're an animal lover. I don't see how me thinking she's a **** makes me as bad as her.
