I realise feelings are running high concerning the dog 'attacks' in the Blyth park, but I cannot, in all honesty, condone the killing of this dog by the police. An offer was made to home the 14 month old dog by a sanctuary, but sadly Marley was never granted this opportunity. Take a look at the poor dog on page 4 of the News Post Leader. Tragic.

As I get older I find all life is precious, from misunderstood animals, down to the bottom of the pond, yes, even politicians.

My thoughts go out to the poor kids who suffered nasty bites, but I don't think killing the dog was the solution. Kill the owner, by all means. 

Best quote I have seen in a long time was about Harambe the gorilla who was shot.  If he was shot because he might have hurt that young lad then why are paedophiles walking around?  Same goes for this dog! 

Dead right Malcolm. If my dog was drowning along with a known paedophile, I know who I'd save. Shame on the vet too that made the decision to destroy this dog. Or was it another case of, 'They told me to do it?'
