This atrocity happened here in my province of Newfoundland last year.

This is not a happy story. It’s not a pretty story. You will not enjoy it. But it’s an important story, one that needs to be told. And retold. And told again.
Until things change and the story is no longer true......
This is the story of Bullet, a purebred Australian shepherd, who lived on the Burin Peninsula.
I wouldn’t say lived, exactly. Endured is more like it.
You see, Bullet’s owner soon grew tired of the dog’s hyper behaviour, and so he chained him on outside. But before long the constant barking and the poop on the ground became too much and Bullet was moved further away, downhill from the house to a dilapidated wharf where he took shelter in a rickety doghouse and spent every single minute of every single day for nine long years at the end of a six-foot chain.
The owner’s brother brought him food once a day.
There were no walks. No companionship. No toys or treats. No grooming. No stimulation. No medical care.......

This story did not have a happy ending for the dog. Get out the hankies.
People who do this stuff are much more than disgusting, and I think some of them should be tied to a rotting wharf for a day or two and see how they like it.
and this dog suffered it for nine years!
Absolutely horrible.
I have always had pets, and would love to see a day when there is no abuse for either animals or our fellow humans.

I agree!
