Don’t be afraid to report cases of animal abuse
Gina Marketos (12) writes:
While my family and I were eating take-away pizza my dad told me a story about one of his colleague’s dogs.
His dog went missing and they put up signs to find it. Six days later the dog was returned badly injured.
It was found in a dog-fighting ring in Alexandra. When I heard this I lost my appetite and was completely heartbroken! All I could think is why?
Why would people be so heartless? And why is a human life more valuable than animals?
It is just disturbing and wrong that people can place a bet on a dogfight to see which one wins.
It is time that people stop animal abuse, and the only way that will happen is if we work together as a community. So if you do come across any animal abuse don’t be afraid to report it.
You can make a change so why not make it? If you do come across any animal abuse you can contact the SPCA.
