Saint in Paradise Posted 28 January, 2010 Share Posted 28 January, 2010 I know that I would be really upset if one of our cats was killed by a dog but this is way over the top. The 33 dogs shot dead in what police have called a "bloody, rifle-killing frenzy" would have cowered in fear, says SPCA head, Bob Kerridge. The dogs were shot following a row between neighbours on a rural property near Wellsford, north of Auckland. Police and the SPCA were both investigating the shootings and Mr Kerridge said the dogs would have been terrified. "It was a total massacre. " The dogs were shot after a fox terrier belonging to Russell Mendoza was killed and he blamed the death on one or more of the 39 dogs kept on his neighbour Rowan Hargreaves' property. Police are also investigating the shooting, including the possibility one of the gunmen did not have a firearms licence. http://nz.news.yahoo.com/a/-/newshome/6730216/spca-investigates-after-33-dogs-killed/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
