News alert from Refuge Kimba, Spain.
The ordeal behind our little "Medina".....
A few Days ago a little dog arrived at our shelter (Kimba). She had been very abused by her mean owner.
MEDINA SIDONIA
Detained for beating and attempting to hang a dog
S. TUBIO/CADIZ
The cruelty that a human being can demonstrate was shown several days ago by the torturous acts that a resident of Medina Sidonia inflicted upon a dog who belonged to him.
Two police officers of the Guardia Civil were alerted by some neighbors who had been witnessing the beatings that a dog had been suffering at a property situated on the Carril de la Flora in the Asidonense municipality.
These witnesses stated that a man, identified as Diego D. F., had been kicking and beating the animal for over an hour. He also tried for ten minutes to hang the animal with a rope. The macabre scene did not end there. These witnesses further explained that the ruthless owner treated the dog as if it were a yo-yo while he had the dog suspended in mid air.
Despite the beating that he received, the animal survived because the rope which the owner had tied to the dog had gotten stuck on his jaw and did not reach the dog's neck. The officers knew that the ordeal had begun long before this. Apparently, Diego D. F. had not fed the dog for several days, weakening even further the physical condition of the animal.
The officers of the Guardia Civil, after obtaining testimonies from four witnesses, arrested the owner of the animal, and was placed to disposition at the court of first instance number 3 of Chiclana. The dog was taken to the Sociedad Protectora de Animales Kimba which is in the same municipality of Chiclana.
