Tempus Fugit Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Dog stabbed to death in Perth park by hoodie-wearing man; police seek witnesses: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-05-18/dog-stabbed-to-death-in-perth-park/8536332 Link to comment
Loving my Oldies Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 I sure hope he is caught. Poor woman is, naturally, distraught. It sounded as though she thought the man’s dog had attacked hers, but the vet confirmed he had been stabbed What gets me is that a man who was interviewed in the park said he heard a woman screaming ........ but did nothing about it. I don’t know if anyone else heard the interview and there was more to it. I can’t believe you’d hear someone screaming and not go to help. 1 Link to comment
Kazm Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 So cruel. Why would anyone do a thing like that. Hope he is caught and receives a punishment that fits the crime. Link to comment

I heard on the news that the punishment could be 5 years in jail. I hope the judge is a dog lover and does the right thing in honour of all animals let down by humans. 3 Link to comment
PANDI-GIRL Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 I'm so upset now , I wish I had not seen or read that , sometimes I just want to stay in bed and cuddle PANDI Link to comment
Loving my Oldies Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 The fellow has been arrested. Now let’s listen to him try to justify what he did because he was suffering from a mental illness or had a black out and saw the dog as the devil. Link to comment
Animal House Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 DDD, He might have a mental illness, or he might just be a horrible person. That's what the courts are for, I'm just glad they found him. Link to comment

Kazm Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Wow. Sometimes I just wonder what judges are thinking. So easy for some people to just get away with anything. I feel for the poor woman. It must have been very distressing for her and she probably feels let down by the justice system. Such a sad time for her. Link to comment
Scrappi&Monty Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 What a disgusting human being, how can he call himself an animal lover!? Why would the magistrate let him off easy like that? A normal person would not be carrying a knife for starters, and it definitely shouldn't be instinctual to reach for a knife and stab a dog!! Why the hell would he be quiet? Would he not yell and kick or something?? Like if you were actually really worried, that isn't how you react. What if he reacted like that to a human? Just stabbed them without any warning because he felt intimidated? Disgusting. 1 Link to comment

That's what the courts are for, I'm just glad they found him. Not only is he a horrible person, but also is his defence lawyer and the magistrate. Yet again, “the courts” ....... totally out of touch and yet again, animals betrayed by them. This judgement is nothing less than obscene. If Luna was a danger, how on earth was that filth able to crouch down in front of her and stab her. Insanity - day after day after day. 2 Link to comment
Animal House Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Very disappointing outcome. Link to comment
Boronia Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 He has his photo pasted in the papers and over the internet The police are aware of him now (he will get 'street-checked' as he may have a weapon) His friends (if he has any left) will all know as will his family and his work colleagues and management and the local shops and cafés...he may be kept waiting aeons to get served he is well and truly buggered now 2 Link to comment
Kazm Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Thumbs up to you Boronia. Nice thinking. All that you mentioned is what he deserves. 1 Link to comment
ncarter Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 (edited) i know where this park is and its a dodgy place where you could easily be mugged so that may explain why the guy was carrying the knife. Anyway I think too much blame has been put on the guy stabbing the dog and not enough on the owner of the lab. From what I understand the guy is walking his puppy and is rushed at by two off lead dogs with no owner in sight. The guy has had previous bad experiences with other dogs attacking his dogs, so totally overreacts, is paranoid, mentally unstable, skittish or a combo of the above. I didn't think it was necessarily a case of random animal abuse but I could be wrong.. Edited June 21, 2017 by ncarter 1 Link to comment
