I don't know how I would react if I saw someone doing this.

It's enough to make me reconsider carrying.

Dogs used as shark bait

Cruel ... dog with hook through snout

FULL NEWS INDEX

By IAN HEPBURN

STRAY dogs are being skewered on hooks and dragged behind boats as live shark bait, The Sun can shockingly reveal.

The cruel practice takes place on French-controlled Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean, where Prince William spent two holidays.

A six-month-old labrador pup was recently found ALIVE with a huge double hook through its snout - like the dog above - and another through a leg.

The pup was found in a coastal creek and is thought to have somehow freed itself from a fishing line.

But other dogs and kittens have been chomped up and swallowed by sharks.

The RSPCA plans to petition the French government, demanding an end to the hideous torture.

Where's PETA when you need them?

Of course, expecting PETA to deal with real animal cruelty is like expecting the ATF to deal with real criminals....

I wish I could agree with you.

If you notice, that's not the American tabloid sun. It's a British newspaper.

People do unspeakable things to other people...what's to stop them from doing them to dogs? I think it is horribly believable...and I'd be tempted to shoot the sorry sob who did it.

Just tempted? Personally I would drench them in cow blood and throw them in a cage with ten Hungry adult Rottweilers :twisted: Sounds just to me.

I wouldn't go to prison on account of a dog....but I tell you what...I would do every thing within my legal ability if I EVER caught someone mistreating a dog. That just makes me sick.

If I was in that situation I think we'd have a man overboard 'accident' hehehehehehehehehehe.

Come on, AmericanGunner, don't tarnish the image of my adorable female Rottweiler puppy, 9 1/2 months old, 90 pounds. I could be persuaded to help feed those cruel Frenchies to werewolves, though.
