Two women have been jailed for a year after their neighbor was “literally eaten alive” by their hungry dog.

Hayley Sulley, 30, and Della Woods, 29, of Norris Green in Liverpool were at a barbecue when their presa canario crossbreed, Charlie, made his way into the backyard of the women’s retired neighbour, Clifford Clarke, 79.

The dog had not been fed for 45 hours and was eating plastic bowls, cigarette butts and drinking dirty water. Clarke, who had celebrated his birthday just the day before, was cooking lamb and had left his kitchen door open.

Clarke was attacked so badly, his left arm was amputated and the other one was “hanging by a thread.”

When seconds count and your Government has disarmed you the police are only minutes away.

I could write a decent murder whodunit off of this.

I think the quotation marks would belong more properly around the word “pet”.

Representative Example...

“too lenient”

Agreed. You don’t feed a dog and it eats a person alive. Worth more than being banned from dog ownership.

A year isn’t long enough.

That dog was more than just hungry.

It was severely abused and driven mad with fear, pain and rage. That’s the only thing, other than rabies, that would have made it that insanely aggressive (read the details in the article).

Those women are monsters.

too lenient

A guy called Hammurabi would simply point at his Code.

Presa Canarios are like pitbulls on steroids.

Incredibly powerful looking animal.

Nothing a bullet couldn’t take care of..............

Looks like a reptile.

I’m guessing these events took place in Liverpool England, not Liverpool New York.

I guess that he will never take up arms against the government again...

But these are my favorite. A couple of these, and you are all set.

Cute...

I agree, I don’t think that 45 hours of hunger turns pets into that raging monster.

I doubt it was just hunger that caused this behavior. I would not be surprised to learn the dog had a serious illness that caused brain damage.
