I was searching for information about Greek hunting dogs (for reasons I won't go into now) and stumbled across this appalling story. It shocked me in one way - and in another, it didn't.
You can read the sad story here: http://www.occupyforanimals.org/greece-p...patra.html
There is a Greek video with English subtitles here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Cl6ANXP50c#t=12
I am struggling to keep a balanced composure in the face of such behaviour. A so-called "man of God" executing a dog with a shotgun for trespassing, despite the pleas of the dogs owner (I refrain from using the word "caretaker" in this case, as the dog was used for hunting and was not a pet).
Sadly, this is yet another case of hypocrisy from a representative of organised religion...and the priest didn't even have a gun licence!
