"An internal inquiry is also continuing." Whats the full story here? Did they die from being kept in the vehicle with no air? I take it they were working Police Dogs, so i dont think they were kept in a unnecessary way, i.e not feed, watered, excersiced etc..... This will be interesting im sure.

fin and fur 2 Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I thought that with all the weight of public opinion behind this incident that a court case was inevitable. The countrymans weekly (last week or so) drew attention to a similar case (dog deaths in cars) involving a vet, of all people, from Clutton in Somerset. As Clutton is not far from me i took a keen interest in this case, it seems the RSPCA didnt want to prosecute the vet as he might prove useful to them in future when it comes to bringing cases of animal maltreatment against others (talk about hypocritical). The vet conncerned has subsequently moved to another practice, but this incident does seem to show the double standards by which the RSPCA operate. I have absolutley no respect whatsoever for an organisation which could show such blatant favouritism in failing to prosecute someone who is guilty of animal cruelty in case he may be of use to them in the future when they seek to prosecute people for animal cruelty.

Kay 3,709 Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I should bloody well think so , anyone who leaves any animal shut in a car on the hottest day of the year to die should be shot personally would the prick have left a baby in his car ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

matty73 4 Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 as for the incident with the vet it makes you wonder how he will be of use to rspca in the future, to gain a prosecution by twisting the truth for them maybe. but how would his professional testimony stand up in court for prosecution surely the defence would bring up the dog death incident and lack of conviction by rspca and discredit him Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Surgeons refused to act against this moron because they feel he did nothing wrong!!!!! another bunch of hypocrits...he deserves to be struck off...if my vet had done something like this I'd vote with my cheque book Quote Link to post Share on other sites
