Those who know me can attest that I'm a friendly, peaceful cockapoo, and not a dog who seeks vengeance. I like to lead a gentle life and try to think well of others. But then I read this news article:
Barrington Panel Votes to Euthanize 'Vicious' East Providence Dog
Barrington police held a vicious-dog hearing Monday morning after a boxer/pitbull [diverse-breed dog] registered to an East Providence owner maimed a cockapoo and its owner last July. . .
The attack on the cockapoo . . . came within four doors of her home . . . Smith said she was walking her 11-year-old dog, . . . when the boxer/pitbull jumped through the open window of an SUV and attacked them. . . .The boxer jumped and snapped at them and managed to bite into the cockapoo’s legs and pull them to the ground.
The boxer pulled so hard that the cockapoo’s legs were pulled out of the hip joints and the bite marks penetrated to the bone.
I'm glad they caught this dog and put him in jail where he belongs -- pictured above in his cell. The description of the attack is so awful that I am rethinking my position on capital punishment. I support it for animals like this. What do you think?
Do you think they give him a 'last meal' before execution, with any food he wants? Hmm.
