Utah Gossip

Ok, this is a totally lame story. Apparently, Joshua McFarlane got fed up over his neighbor’s dog barking, so he waited with a butcher knife until the dog stuck his nose through a gap in the fence, and stabbed it in the face. The dog required stitches to close the wound and stop the bleeding.

Mr. McFarlane should have (and could have) handled the situation any other way – filing a complaint with animal control, talking with the owners – anything other than stabbing the poor dog. He can’t claim that he snapped, either, because he was obviously waiting with a knife for the dog to stick his nose through the fence.

This is such a sick story – I don’t understand what would make someone do something like this. We’ve all heard annoying dogs barking all night, but seriously, who stabs the dog in the face? Work out the problem with the owners – don’t attack the animal. Stabbing the dog only makes you look like a crazy moron. Of course, someone that would do something like this probably is a crazy moron.

Once again, we need to pass Henry’s Law. Go to HelpUsHelpThem.org, and sign the petition. Animal torture should be a felony in Utah.
