The four-legged friend had to suffer for weeks – his “master” now had to answer to the regional court of St. Pölten for animal cruelty.
Another sad case of animal cruelty in Lower Austria: A dog was locked up in an apartment in the Mostviertel for several weeks. Without an exhaust, he remained in his own excrement. Every day the four-legged friend became visibly worse, he stopped eating – until he finally died in early September.
false statement to the police
“I saw that the dog was not well,” admits his owner, crying. Now the 40-year-old dog owner had to answer for animal abuse and defamation at the regional court in St. Pölten. Besides, the man wanted to put the blame for the death of his four-legged friend on his own niece.
10 months conditional
“I’m sorry about everything,” he says sadly. His life had somehow gotten out of hand and he’s been doing more bad than good ever since. He hasn’t even cleaned the apartment yet. So he lives with his girlfriend. “You shouldn’t bury your head in the sand now,” the judge urges him to act. And he sentenced the 40-year-old to ten months in prison – not legally binding.
