Poor Boy

Me and my mum went to Tesco, and the road across from it is very, very busy at the best of times. So as we drive into the car park, we see a Staff off the lead running with no collar on towards the road. Me and my mum got out the car and were about to go down the hill to the street to see if we could catch him, but we saw a man had got there, so I watched and he put a harness and lead back on the dog...and then kicked him! Dog was unfazed by it, but that isn't the point. Not only is it wrong to kick him, let alone when it's the owner's fault, but imagine what he's taught the dog: If you come back to me after running away, I'll get so angry I'll kick you. What an idiot. I wanted to snatch the lead off him and take him home with me to be honest, he was a lovely boy but at least he wasn't ran over, he could very easily have been.

Awww that's awful, hate to see things like that

It could have ended much worse, but still, its horrible to witness other owners being nasty to their dogs

it must have been awful to have to watch that,you must have had to bite your tongue,i know i would,poor boy

Aww poor dog, some humans are vile

Absolutely awful.

That's horrible Tara. Poor dog

That must have been such a difficult thing to witness! How can they dream of doing such a thing to them.... At least the dog wasn't run over...

Awww poor baby What a jerk

Sorry but it sounds like the human could do with a kicking - how awful

Thats disgusting! Poor thing

Some people make me soooo
What an idiot. You did well to keep so calm. I probably would of waved a tenner and shouted excuse me mate you've just dropped this then booted the idiot when he came to collect

Ah, in a perfect world I'd have run down to him, kicked him and then taken the poor boy home with us but better than being run over, I suppose. Still sad though, can't believe people do these things in public.

I hate hearing about physical abuse to animals, the owner is the one who deserves a kicking.
