Dog dragged from home and brutally shot dead in-front of owner's wife and son while on the way to school!

This news hit me with a little extra kick primarily because of a Black stray came to our house not too long ago. It is very obedient, well, he plays with my dad etc. Though the only thing about him is that he will chew on our shoes now (after he got used to us), and on occasion he will bring some carcass home (perhaps he was a stray for too long).

Another thing that made the news a little bit personal for me is that sometimes when I take the motorcycle to go for basketball, he will run along side of me until the busy junction before heading off elsewhere, just like how the black dog trailed its owner to school!

An extract of the news:


A landscape supervisor is upset and disappointed with the Central Johor Baru Municipal Council workers they shot his dog in the street and when the dog ran back into his house compound, the workers entered the compound, looped the injured animal and dragged it onto the road.
The MBJBT workers then shot the dog a second time and killed it.
Taman Johor Jaya resident Tan Sek Khang, 51, said when the MBJBT workers shot the dog a second time, they did it in front of his protesting wife and son.

The cruelty displayed to animals, I do understand that they are doing their jobs, but if no one is defending the poor thing, fine, but how can they shoot it infront of the kid when they are pleading that its theirs, and the fact that they dragged the already wounded dog from the owner's house is definitely unforgivable, shooting it dead infront of the family is just plain satanic!!
