Abuse puts pups in hospital
Paul Britton28/ 2/2008
RSPCA bosses are appealing for information after two puppies were taken to an animal hospital with injuries caused by attempts to `dock' their tails.
The rottweilers, thought to be siblings, were taken separately to Greater Manchester Animal Hospital in Salford by owners who bought them after answering an advert in a supermarket in Eccles.
Better still, they can contact me with her details, they must have an address.
The things people will do to make a few quid or save a few quid. As I've said before, people who treat animals like this shouldn't be allowed to keep them & it should be questioned wether they are a risk to kids or any vulnerable adults.

Pippa spot on, you are not telling me that these two buyers purchased puppies off the street corner, and as the docking of tails is illegal why buy the pups in the first place?
Nice to see animal cruelty is still alive and well within greater manchester

Can you imagine what sort of grudge these two fundamentally unnacceptable 'pets' are going to have buried deep within their psyche? I hope the new owners smother them with love - but never trust them.
Joanne ought to be sought, located and punished very severely.
People who damage animals are generally mentally ill and need catching for our protection.

Surely the buyers of these poor pups could tell the RSPC where "Joanne" lives ? They did, I assume, collect them from a house ? Hopefully when whoever perpetrated this illegal act will be dealt with accordingly?

Should less emphasis be placed on the results of tests and more emphasis on general education for children?
