Scandal in Wels: Dog brutally beaten – perpetrator in court!

Two shocking cases of animal cruelty are causing horror and bewildered shaking of the head in German-speaking countries. A 45-year-old dog owner from Wels is on trial today because he is said to have brutally mistreated his “Cane Corso”. The incident occurred on July 11, 2024 in Marchtrenk, when the dog declared a shipping package worth 200 euros to be a toy and tore it apart. The man, beside himself with anger, is said to have hit his four-legged friend with at least ten punches and two kicks. This frightening aggression resulted in the animal suffering serious injuries. The dog owner now faces up to two years in prison for animal cruelty, reports krone.at.

Meanwhile, another shocking incident became known in Saxony that is heating up people's minds. A man disgustingly tried to get rid of his dog "Eddie" by hitting him with a shovel and then dumping him among garden waste. This cruel act was witnessed by a witness who immediately informed the police. Eddie, who suffered a laceration and traces of blood in the incident, was taken to an animal shelter by the volunteer fire department, where he is now being treated. The police are looking for the perpetrator - a man dressed in dark clothing who left in a dark gray car derwesten.de reported. The circumstances of the crime raise questions: Is the perpetrator Eddie's owner? The situation remains tense while investigations into this animal cruelty case are ongoing.
