The man who brutally threw a dog in front of the Lewiatan supermarket on Staszica Street in Bolesławiec was fined PLN 1,500. What is more, the convicted man was to pay PLN 500 in compensation to the Society for the Care of Animals and PLN 350 to the owner of the female dog, Hera. A fair verdict? We invite you to discuss it.
Let us recall: in mid-January of the previous year, a shocking attack on a defenseless dog took place in Bolesławiec. For unknown reasons, the man approached the animal. He lifted it and brutally threw it onto the ground.
Hera suffered serious injuries to her hind leg and underwent surgery. The dog was in great pain. The animal’s owner told us at the time how it happened: “I went into the shop for a moment to top up my phone. When I came out, Hera was covered in blood. I did not know what had happened. Someone told me that I had to take the dog to a vet.”
Only after a while did witnesses to the incident tell the woman what had happened. When asked why he had hurt another animal, the perpetrator, who was also a dog owner, replied that he loved only his own pet.
