Apparently allowed to run free on street , no muzzles , pics of owners trying to drag them off old lady I think the owners actions saved her rather than her lying prone on floor . Though both owner should end up in court and dogs pts

Ten dogs killed after cruel thug threw them into canal in Sports Direct bag..By Wayne Ankers & Susie Beever, News Reporter.i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article32989644.ece/ALTERNATES/s1200d/0_Sports-Direct-bag-killed-dogs-1.jpgTen dogs - including eight puppies - have died after heartless thugs threw them into a canal in a Sports Direct bag with a brick. The disturbing discovery was made by a member of the public who spotted the bag in the Leeds Liverpool Canal in Leeds. RSPCA officers fished the bag from the canal, along with fire and rescue services. Tragically, RSPCA officers found two adult French Bulldogs in the bag, alongside eight puppies, two of which were Terrier pups, who were all deceased. A brick was also discovered in the bag on May 20. The grim find follows a discovery bearing chilling similarities a year ago, Leeds Live reports. A family of five dead Frenchies were all pulled from the same canal which had also been discarded in a Sports Direct bag. Animal Rescue Officer Hannah Williams from the RSPCA said the two disturbing incidents had raised suspicions, adding the pooches appeared to have been intentionally and needlessly killed. Hannah said: “It is very suspicious that two identical incidents have occurred in the same area, both families of French bulldogs and both in Sports Direct bags. It seems highly likely that these are linked. “It's awful to think what these poor dogs went through and I'm keen to piece together what happened leading up to finding them. They didn't appear to be in ill health which makes us, very sadly, believe they could have been intentionally drowned. “This would be an awful act of animal cruelty and we are urging anyone who has any information about this possibility to get in touch with us so we can find out what happened to these poor dogs. If anyone has any information at all which can help us, please do get in touch." She urged people to check their security cameras to see if they saw anyone carrying a Sports Direct bag close to the location on 20 May. Anyone with information should call the RSPCA’s appeals line on 0300 123 8018, quoting reference 1268568.

I saw this online and I hope the person responsible is caught and dealt with......but the story here is by W.Ankers and Susie Beever is that a wind up ?

Afraid it's usually the same type of dog breed. In the scenario a eg Collie turns ,well it would'nt very nice but an adult or strong youngster ought to be able to do something about it. In the scenario a Staffordshire Pit Bull or other such dog turns,then you have a serious problem. Reminds of the difference between the US and UK,but with humans. In the scenario a Brit loses their mind temporarily , they may grab at worse a knife. Very dangerous, but the targetted victim has a chance. The same scenario in the US sees the aggressor grab a gun,then "we have problem Houston ".

Police shouldnt release a statement until they know the breed/type of dog involved,Staffords have had some bad publicity over the years yet I find the vast majority of them people loving and particularly good with children.

West Country woman filmed beating dog as she nursed her puppies, She kicked and punched the defenceless animal..By Shannon Brown, Reporter
A dog breeder from the West Country has been punished after being caught on camera kicking and punching a dog who was nursing newborn puppies at the time of the attack. Sharon Jeannine Gladwell, of Mount Pleasant, Hayle, was reported to the RSPCA by a horrified member of the public after she witnessed the attack on the animal that had been left in Gladwell's care.
Gladwell, 51, appeared at Bodmin Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday, June 18, to be sentenced after pleading guilty to two offences under the Animal Welfare Act 2006. She was fined £733, ordered to pay £400 in costs and a £293 victim surcharge for maltreating the dog, named Trust.
The witness statement reads: “I saw Sharon enter the room where Trust was with the puppies. She placed a bowl in the whelping box and I saw Trust cower away. This wasn’t at all like her and it concerned me.
“At 17.58... I saw her get into the whelping box with Trust and the puppies. I was watching it live as it happened. Sharon straightened out the bedding and then kicked Trust hard in the chest with her right foot. She then leant over her and Trust didn’t move.
“She then hits Trust to the face causing her head to move backwards. She then continues to lean over her before hitting her again to the face. She then picks her up by the scruff and the fur on her rump, and holds her off the floor for around eight seconds before throwing her to the back of the whelping pen.”
A vet who viewed the footage said Trust would have suffered physical pain as a result of the incident, as well as ‘emotional stress’. In a statement to the court, the vet added: “It is my opinion that the person in this video has behaved appallingly with a total disregard for the welfare of both the bitch and her pups.”
The dog was purchased as a puppy from Gladwell in 2018 under an agreement that, when she was three, she would be returned to the breeder in Penwith to have a litter of puppies. In May 2021, the RSPCA said Trust was put to stud and her owner returned her to Gladwell's home to give birth in July, alongside another pregnant dog.
Gladwell was caught on camera because she asked the witness to help fix the cameras in her two whelping rooms, a pen designed to protect puppies during birth. She said in her statement that she did manage to fix them and downloaded an app on her phone to see them as well, which, she added, Gladwell was aware of.
The witness said, in her statement: “She [Gladwell] had two whelping rooms set up, one in the front bedroom which was where Trust was, and one in a room off the toilet. She told me that the cameras in her whelping rooms had stopped working and asked me to try to fix them for her.
"I ended up getting them to work and downloaded an app onto my phone so I could see them as well. Sharon knew this. I stayed whilst Trust had her puppies. She had eight puppies in total.”
The witness left after an argument between the two women but, when Gladwell stopped returning her messages, she decided the following day, July 31, 2021, to check in on her and the puppies, through the app, saw Gladwell's treatment of the dog and reported her to the RSPCA.
One of Trust's puppies died from suspected leptospirosis - a bacterial disease spread by the urine of infected animals - but the others were all sold and their mother was returned to her owner. The witness added: “Sharon told me that Trust had been kept inside the house but she stank and her stomach was covered in dirt which took me about a week to get off. She had also lost weight.”
Reports were made to the RSPCA in July 2023 and officers launched an investigation, visiting Gladwell in November of that year. The witness said she didn’t report it earlier because she was worried about repercussions.

Woman killed in attack by pet dog..by Richard Price, BBC News, West Midlands.i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article33300379.ece/ALTERNATES/s1200e/0_WEXFORD.jpgA woman in her 30s has died after she was attacked by a pet dog in Coventry. It happened inside a property on Wexford Road at about 12:15 BST on Monday, the ambulance service said. The woman was found in a critical condition inside the building and, with help from police officers, was quickly taken outside due to "safety concerns", they added. She was given advanced life support by paramedics but died a short time later. The dog was seized and the woman's death reported to the coroner for further investigations, West Midlands Police said. The dog's breed was yet to be confirmed but it was not believed to be a banned breed, the force explained. A full assessment will be required before the authorities can confirm this. Ch Insp David Amos said: "We understand that this is a distressing and tragic incident and we would like to thank the local community for their support and to our emergency services colleagues who dealt with this incident. "Our thoughts remain firmly with the family and loved ones of the woman who has sadly died and [we] will be informing the coroner of her death." Two ambulances, a paramedic officer and two air ambulances were sent to the scene, with the first ambulance arriving within six minutes of being called, West Midlands Ambulance Service said. A spokesperson added: "With help from police, the woman was rapidly removed from the property due to safety concerns." Despite the best efforts of ambulance staff, nothing could be done to save the woman and she was confirmed dead at the scene a short time later, they added. They said nobody else was hurt in the attack.

Adam Britton: Dog rapist who sexually abused and killed dozens of animals is jailed for over 10 years..by Tiffanie Turnbull, BBC News, Sydney.i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2023/09/26/07/75834119-12560199-Adam_Britton_pictured_told_a_stranger_on_Telegram_that_he_stoppe-a-2_1695708805863.jpgA renowned British crocodile expert has been jailed for 10 years and five months in Australia, after admitting to sexually abusing dozens of dogs, in a case which horrified the nation. Warning: This story contains distressing details of animal crueltyAdam Britton, a leading zoologist who has worked on BBC and National Geographic productions, pleaded guilty to 56 charges relating to bestiality and animal cruelty. He also admitted to four counts of accessing child abuse material. The Northern Territory (NT) Supreme Court heard the 53-year-old filmed himself torturing the animals until almost all died, and then shared the videos online under pseudonyms. His abuse went unnoticed for years, until a clue was found in one of his videos. Britton was arrested in April 2022 after a search of his rural Darwin property, which also uncovered child abuse material on his laptop. Much of the detail of Britton's crimes are too graphic to publish, and so "grotesque" the judge at times warned people to leave the courtroom. "Your depravity falls outside any ordinary human conception," Chief Justice Michael Grant told Britton, according to the Australian Associated Press. Including time already served, Britton could be eligible for parole in April 2028. He is also banned from owning any mammals for the rest of his life. Mr Britton's lawyer argued his offending was driven by a rare disorder causing intense, atypical sexual interests. i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2023/09/27/01/75871837-12564431-image-a-3_1695776266172.jpgBritton with his wife Erin once hosted Sir David AttenboroughBorn in West Yorkshire, Britton grew up in the UK before moving to Australia more than 20 years ago to work with crocodiles. With a PhD in zoology, he had built a global reputation for his expertise, even hosting Sir David Attenborough while the veteran broadcaster filmed part of the Life in Cold Blood docuseries on his property. Locals have told media he seemed like a quiet but passionate defender of animals. But he was harbouring a "sadistic sexual interest" in them, court documents say. Exchanges with "like-minded" people in secret online chatrooms detail how Britton began molesting horses at the age of 13. "I was sadistic as a child to animals, but I had repressed it. In the last few years I let it out again, and now I can't stop. I don't want to." he wrote in one message tendered to the court. For at least the past decade, Britton had exploited his own pets and manipulated other dog owners into giving him theirs. "My own dogs are family and I have limits," he explained in a Telegram chat entered into evidence. "I only badly mistreat other dogs... I have no emotional bond to them, they are toys pure and simple. And [there are] plenty more where they came from." He tortured at least 42 dogs, killing 39 of them, according to court documents seen by the BBC. The files only detail his crimes over the 18 months before his arrest, but still fill more than 90 pages. Using online marketplace Gumtree Australia, Britton would find people who were often reluctantly giving their pets away due to travel or work commitments. He would build a "rapport" with them to negotiate taking custody of the animals and if they reached out for updates on their old pets, the court heard he would tell them "false narratives" and send them old photos. In reality, he was abusing the animals in a shipping container on his property that had been fitted out with recording equipment - which he called his "torture room" - before sharing footage of his crimes online using aliases. Britton would also coach others on how to copy his behaviour and get rid of the evidence. Asked how to dispose of the dogs' remains, Britton - who shared his sprawling property on the outskirts of Darwin with eight crocodiles - said "some I feed to other animals". He was only caught after uploading a clip in which he tortured at least eight dogs - all except one were puppies - which was passed on to NT police in an anonymous tip-off. Britton usually went to great lengths to avoid identifying himself or his location in his videos, but in this one a bright orange City of Darwin dog leash could be seen in the background. Within weeks, in April 2022, police swooped on his property and arrested Britton, who has been remanded in custody ever since. They seized recording devices, animal remains and a laptop on which they also located 15 files containing child abuse material. i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2023/09/27/08/75841137-12564431-Britton_not_only_tortured_and_sexually_abused_his_own_pets_Ursa_-a-1_1695800042158.jpg Britton not only tortured and sexually abused his own pets Ursa and Bolt (above), who he created an Instagram page for, but also dogs from pet owners he had lured into his trap through the online marketplace platform Gumtree Australia

Adam Britton: Dog rapist who sexually abused and killed dozens of animals is jailed for over 10 years..by Tiffanie Turnbull, BBC News, Sydney.i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2023/09/26/07/75834119-12560199-Adam_Britton_pictured_told_a_stranger_on_Telegram_that_he_stoppe-a-2_1695708805863.jpgA renowned British crocodile expert has been jailed for 10 years and five months in Australia, after admitting to sexually abusing dozens of dogs, in a case which horrified the nation. Warning: This story contains distressing details of animal crueltyAdam Britton, a leading zoologist who has worked on BBC and National Geographic productions, pleaded guilty to 56 charges relating to bestiality and animal cruelty. He also admitted to four counts of accessing child abuse material. The Northern Territory (NT) Supreme Court heard the 53-year-old filmed himself torturing the animals until almost all died, and then shared the videos online under pseudonyms. His abuse went unnoticed for years, until a clue was found in one of his videos. Britton was arrested in April 2022 after a search of his rural Darwin property, which also uncovered child abuse material on his laptop. Much of the detail of Britton's crimes are too graphic to publish, and so "grotesque" the judge at times warned people to leave the courtroom. "Your depravity falls outside any ordinary human conception," Chief Justice Michael Grant told Britton, according to the Australian Associated Press. Including time already served, Britton could be eligible for parole in April 2028. He is also banned from owning any mammals for the rest of his life. Mr Britton's lawyer argued his offending was driven by a rare disorder causing intense, atypical sexual interests. i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2023/09/27/01/75871837-12564431-image-a-3_1695776266172.jpgBritton with his wife Erin once hosted Sir David AttenboroughBorn in West Yorkshire, Britton grew up in the UK before moving to Australia more than 20 years ago to work with crocodiles. With a PhD in zoology, he had built a global reputation for his expertise, even hosting Sir David Attenborough while the veteran broadcaster filmed part of the Life in Cold Blood docuseries on his property. Locals have told media he seemed like a quiet but passionate defender of animals. But he was harbouring a "sadistic sexual interest" in them, court documents say. Exchanges with "like-minded" people in secret online chatrooms detail how Britton began molesting horses at the age of 13. "I was sadistic as a child to animals, but I had repressed it. In the last few years I let it out again, and now I can't stop. I don't want to." he wrote in one message tendered to the court. For at least the past decade, Britton had exploited his own pets and manipulated other dog owners into giving him theirs. "My own dogs are family and I have limits," he explained in a Telegram chat entered into evidence. "I only badly mistreat other dogs... I have no emotional bond to them, they are toys pure and simple. And [there are] plenty more where they came from." He tortured at least 42 dogs, killing 39 of them, according to court documents seen by the BBC. The files only detail his crimes over the 18 months before his arrest, but still fill more than 90 pages. Using online marketplace Gumtree Australia, Britton would find people who were often reluctantly giving their pets away due to travel or work commitments. He would build a "rapport" with them to negotiate taking custody of the animals and if they reached out for updates on their old pets, the court heard he would tell them "false narratives" and send them old photos. In reality, he was abusing the animals in a shipping container on his property that had been fitted out with recording equipment - which he called his "torture room" - before sharing footage of his crimes online using aliases. Britton would also coach others on how to copy his behaviour and get rid of the evidence. Asked how to dispose of the dogs' remains, Britton - who shared his sprawling property on the outskirts of Darwin with eight crocodiles - said "some I feed to other animals". He was only caught after uploading a clip in which he tortured at least eight dogs - all except one were puppies - which was passed on to NT police in an anonymous tip-off.

BBC...child abuse material...'a very rare incident' ? I suppose the vile animal abuse is rare (not rare enough) this person sounds like a serious danger to children and animals, I just hope that one of his Crocodiles gives him what he deserves. For all those heinous crimes he only got just over 10 years, what he admitted to is probably just the tip of the iceberg... I thought the same bt....hopefully other cases are still being investigated and he could be rearrested at the prison gates when he is released,back to court and another ten years. Hopefully he gets a cell mate who was abused as a child.
