Cat Bin Lady, Puppy River Fling Girl & Dublin Dog killed by fireworks.

Agree with you there paddy. For anyone who isn't familiar with the story don't click on the link on the irish independent website as they have very graphic pictures posted of the dog after the incident.

Make you wonder how they even got their hands on fireworks?
 
Firework in Dog's Mouth

I read about this yesterday and it is on my mind. I am so angry. It beggars belief that some sicko did this to a dog for kicks.

I have no children, but if I reared "a thing" like that, I would be ashamed of my life.

The laws are not strict enough on animal cruelty in this country. There was a similar incident in the same area last year when a dog was set alight and thrown over the wall into a family's back garden. What on earth is going on?

Incidents like this actually make my blood boil and I could not give my honest opinion of what should be done to the perpetrator on this board.

Feel for the DSPCA having to face this. It must be so disheartening and demoralising.

If I found somebody doing that to my dog I'd kill them and I mean that literally.

I'm the same purple.

My blood boils even thinking of the man that kicked my dog last year when she was a pup and they thought I wasn't looking. It still makes me want to slap him silly - how anyone can be so black-hearted is beyond me. Keep in mind my pup weighed about 3 pounds at the time and was on the lead, sitting down by my feet. Some people are just twisted.

That poor, poor dog was a member of someone's family. I just can't believe that someone could do that.
 
I posted a link to a petition site yesterday, but decided to delete it as it leads to a photo of the poor animal.

There doesn't seem to be any news about the owners of the dog reporting it to the police. This makes me wonder if the dog belonged to one of the perpetrators. It also makes me wonder if it might just have been an accident with the dog picking up the firework off the ground.

I'd prefer to think that what happened was just the result of carelessness and stupidity rather than deliberate cruelty, but I'm probably just deluding myself.
 
It looks like the cat bin lady is up on charges of animal cruelty. Good enough for her.
