It was his property and he decided to feed an apparently injured animal to the dogs which apparently hurt it to start. Even if they didn't hurt the horse, it was his to slaughter.
Animals cannot have “rights” nor can the respect ours. You will note how many pit bull stories Chet 99 posts that show that animals have no ability to respect our rights.
I am not “for” senseless hurting of animals, nor do I slaughter them. However, I love eating meat and I heartily encourage killing animals for my benefit and I don't think that should be claimed to be “cruelty” simply because someone might think a cow was once a pet, so that means it can't be slaughtered.
I have killed squirrels, mice, rats, and other animals and had “fun” doing so. I've shot pellet guns at crows through the summers on my farm growing up and I'm glad for having done so. All of these are “God's Animals,” so are you saying you will lament what I've done, too?
Also, are you going to grieve the loss of animals you personally paid to have killed simply so you could eat or, worse, if you didn't finish all of it, to simply “throw away in your own trash can”?
Your arguments are emotional and not rational. You don't even see how you've helped kill “kind animals of God” over your own life.
Enjoy your vaccines. They were tested on animals prior to being used on you.
Go protest with PETA.

People that only eat “Square Fish” and “Chicken Nuggets” cannot be held responsible for their emotional responses.
As a whole Man has been and continues to be the most “Humane” animal on the Planet (I think that’s why it’s called “Humane”), there are folks that are not, the Jury is still out on this guy.
