Christ. That girl. What the heck happened to make her grow up like that? That poor, poor, poor dog. Kid needs some sort of extensive therapy, and she needs to be removed from the parents, who shouldn't be allowed to have any more children. I feel so sorry for the dog.
What an awful video. Made me horribly sad, and at the same time reminded me of something I saw last week.
I was helping my art teacher take her three horses to the pony club, about two miles away, and we were walking through the streets. Two of the horses are just foals, really, rescued through a wild horse trust after they were culled from the ranges.
Anyway, she was riding her older horse, an Arab called Sparky, another woman was walking with the youngest foal, Enikai, and I was walking the older, bigger foal, Kaihou. My teacher's dog Tara was with us and Tara's really a well behaved Labrador.
So, on our way there, we were almost to the pony club when we passed a man also walking what looked like a black Labrador. It was offlead, but heeling rather nicely, I thought. At the sight of Tara and the horses, the man told the dog to "get in behind" but it didn't listen. It did keep heeling though, made no move toward either Tara or the horses. Now, this is the awful bit. He was carrying a bamboo switch, and when the dog didn't "get in behind" he just walloped it with the bamboo switch, and the dog cowered down on the ground. And then he hit it again for cowering!
I wanted to say something, but didn't, because I'm too shy to confront people. It was horrible.
