Vital questions
I am appalled that you have given
front page coverage to the man who
stabbed his dog to death which
seems to have allowed him to
endeavor to justify his barbaric
actions (The Argus, October 8).
It seems to me that you forgot to
ask him some vital questions.
Why was he carrying a knife capable
of stabbing something to death?
Why if, as he suggests, this dog
ravaged his daughter in the way he
describes, could the police find no
reports of the girl or anyone having
been treated at hospital - as was
reported at the time of the original
article?
Why did he not get the dog
away and take it to be destroyed
humanely, if that was required,
rather than butchering it in full sight
of anyone who happened to be passing
by?
Why did he leave the dead animal
in the park to be found by anyone?
Wild Park is a family park. Can
you imagine how frightening it
would be for a young child to have
witnessed the attack or have found
the body?
