"An Alberta man accused of animal cruelty in the dragging death of a dog has pleaded not guilty.
Daniel Haskett, 19, of Didsbury did not make an appearance in court Monday. Instead, his lawyer, who has told his client to stay away from court because of threats from animal lovers, made the plea on Haskett's behalf.
In October, a Labrador retriever-collie cross named Daisy Duke was found bleeding on a road, its muzzle and legs bound with duct tape and a tow rope around its neck. The dog had to be put down.
Police said the dog was Haskett's family pet.
Haskett and a 17-year-old, who can't be named because of his age, have been charged with injuring or endangering an animal and causing unnecessary suffering to an animal. Haskett has also been charged with obstructing justice.
He is to be back in court in May."
What it doesn't say in this article, but does say in the article I read in the Newspaper was that the 19-year-old beat his own dog, then tied it to the back of a vehicle by a chain, and drug the dog behind the vehicle until practically every bone in the dog's body was broken. The dog was mutilated.
I have no words for this, other than...
I hope they suffer an undescribably slow and excruciatingly painful death.
And sooner, rather than later.
