German shepherd kicked by man in CCTV footage
Dylan, a German shepherd was distressed in the footage according to a veterinary report heard by the courtA man seen in CCTV footage kicking a German shepherd and hanging him on a fence as they walk on a pavement has been given a 12-month suspended jail sentence.
Terrance Anthony Tovey, 66, admitted causing unnecessary suffering to an animal and failing to meet the dog's needs at Llanelli Magistrates Court, Carmarthenshire. CCTV from Penyfan Road, Llanelli shows the dog, named Dylan, being abused at about 23:00 BST on 29 August 2022 before a bystander intervenes.He was caught after a public appeal.
Dylan “will have been caused to suffer pain and distress," from the "kicking and suspending the dog by its neck," the court heard in a veterinary report.The report added: “The dog acts in an extremely distressed manner whilst being suspended from the fence and it is only the intervention of the second man that interrupts this process and alleviates the dog’s immediate suffering.
“Throughout the footage the dog exhibits periods of submissive behaviour and body language consistent with the dog being fearful and scared of the man," it stated.
