Given the number of these instances and the lack of response from our judicial system, maybe it's time to go full vigilante on these pond scum assholes.
But better yet would be our Gov't to pass a bill similar to one the Americans did making animal cruelty a Federal Felony and not just for bestiality but for the mistreatment of any animals. That might be enough of a deterrent to stop this crap.
Now excuse me while I go and hug my dogs.
