Owner cuts off dog's front legs

[Catherine]

Turkey really needs to strengthen its animal cruelty laws to stop incidents like this. A golden retriever attacked the neighbour's chickens. The neighbour broke the dog's front paws. Then the dog's owner cut the dog's front legs off with an axe. He left the dog to suffer in great pain.
The dog is being cared for now, but the damage is so great that it will be a slow painful recovery. The amputation was done so crudely that prosthetic limbs may not be possible. To gain any mobility the dog may need a wheeled cart.

This is a brutal act of animal cruelty. The initial breaking of the dog's legs was cruel. Cutting the dog's legs off is a horrific act of cruelty. It was a deliberate act of cruelty. The owner continued and cut off the dog's second leg after he could see the terrible damage  done cutting the first leg off.

If Turkish law does not come down heavy on the man for his actions then their animal cruelty laws are terribly inadequate.
