A BOXER pup dumped in a cardboard box in Bromley had to be castrated after suffering a genital infection.
The dog, known as Chops, was found on Tuesday night near Shaftesbury Park in Valeswood Road by a member of the public who contacted the RSPCA.
When RSPCA inspector Stewart Toop collected Chops he saw the pup was suffering from an infected penis and gave him antibiotics and pain killers.
The following morning Chops was taken to the RSPCA Animal Hospital in Putney, where he went under the knife to have the organ removed - as it was too badly infected to save.
Mr Toop said: "This poor dog was just dumped and left in agony."
Anyone with information can call the RSPCA in confidence on 03001234999.

Probably dumped by one of our local intellectuals that races up and down on their motorbikes till all hours of the night. Valeswood is one of their gathering spots.
These dogs are used more as a fashion accessory to these idiots which is probably why we are seeing an increase in dog mess all over our pavements down here

Anyway I hope they track the owner down and put a lifelong ban on pet keeping at a least consequence to this cruel act!

[italic]I was not aware that we ate dogs in this country.[/italic]
the word used was 'animal', however, the distinction i think you are trying to make is irrelevant as cows, pigs, sheep, chickens etc also feel pain and can suffer
[italic]And cows and lambs that are bred for meat[/italic]
so? that does not mean they cannot feel pain and suffer etc
[italic]i am sure are not left with open wounds in pain![/italic]
on what basis/evidence are you 'sure'? there is plenty of hard, documented evidence to show otherwise, eg
www.factoryfarming.o
rg.uk/whatis.html

yes - and what penalty would you apply to those involved in the 'meat' industry given the horrific cruelty being inflicted on animals in same?

I think your missing the point Cassie cats and dogs have been bred as pets and this poor puppy was just left in pain so someone did not have to spend money on him. I would feel is also bad if a cow or a lamb was left dumped like this no animal should suffer. But most people will feel cows, pigs and lamb's are bred for a purpose and that is to be eaten. I understand you dont agree with them being eaten but that is our choice and should not be made to feel guilty. Does that mean you dont eat anything with animal extracts in it? Just incase the animal was in pain for the food to be made, lets face it we could go mad with not eat sweets and many foods that contains animal fats etc

In response to your question Cassie, any farmer who allows his livestock to suffer unduly due to illness or injury should be put out of business. The RSPCA should also tighten up their act! I still see chickens sold with burn marks on their hocks! And yes Cassie, it would bother me to eat meat that has been infected. Some meat is sold with warts and tumours! Not nice! Not appetising! But I don't have a problem with eating good quality meat, quorn and the like are a poor substitute in my opinion.

Animals bred for food feel pain and suffering do they?
That may be so but what about the poor plants and vegetables? Don't they feel terrible anguish as they are yanked out of the ground or torn from trees?
Won't somebody please think of the plants?!!!

I cannot help but think of the name that they have given this poor pooch, I sincerely hope that they were naming him after his jowls and nothing else!
He won't be homeless for long bless him.

if you genuinely believe that then why support an industry, the 'meat' industry', which inflicts horrific suffering on animals day in, day out?

[italic]I understand you dont agree with them being eaten but that is our choice and should not be made to feel guilty. [/italic]
the choice is whether or not to ignore others' pain and suffering, whether or not to support 'might makes right', whether or not to participate in exploiting, abusing, killing the innocent and defenceless who have no choice, etc

yes
[italic]lets face it we could go mad with not eat sweets and many foods that contains animal fats etc[/italic]
do you really, honestly, think it is right to take others' lives just so we can eat sweets?
There are vegan alternatives anyway.

not vegetarian, the dairy industry is extremely cruel too - and not stressed either!

i think you mean you see exploitation, oppression, abuse and killing as issues to joke about - despite that earlier on the board you were crying 'how could anyone do this to a poor defenceless animal?'

jade, the 'meat' industry is inherently cruel, see for yourself eg
www.factoryfarming.o

[italic]The RSPCA should also tighten up their act![/italic]
the cruelty inflicted on farmed animals is legal
[italic]I still see chickens sold with burn marks on their hocks![/italic]
although there is a trend to remove such evidence so the buyer remains unaware
[italic]Some meat is sold with warts and tumours! Not nice![/italic]
neither are the filthy conditions the animals are kept in, nor the antibiotics and hormones etc etc

quorn isn't vegan but anyway 'the like' are definitely not a 'poor substitute' nutrionally and there are many alternatives

Cassie, let me congratulate you on your conviction!
This board has been an interesting read thanks to you.
As long as meat is nicely packaged, smells and tastes good I will miserably fail at even attempting 10% of your stance! If however I was taken to the field and asked what animal I would like to store in my freezer after feeding a handful of hay and looking into its gentle doe eyes I would be unable to order its execution. So yes, before you say it... I am a very BIG HYPOCRITE!
If we all took up your stance, the crop industry would increase, GM crops and insecticides would deal a heavy blow on the insects and this would have a catastrophic effect on birds and other wildlife. There is no solution for man, we are a curse!

hi jade and many thanks...
just wanted to let you know that it is easier than you might think and that there are 'go vegan' packs (info, advice, recipes and details of alternatives) available from animal aid...
the packs are free!
also, re crops - around half the world's harvest is fed to farmed animals...
and over half the world's gm crops are fed to farmed animals - no coincidence that the four main gm crops are the crops used in animal feed
anyway, this is the link for the free pack and environmental issues info

Like I said before puppies are cute, cows are not. I like steak and if you were honest with yourself you know you would love to tuck into a nice juicy piece of steak too. Vegetarians are just attention seekers plain and simple!

i asked if you had any [bold]rational[/bold] explanation
your ridiculous claim that i want to eat others' dead bodies, the dead bodies of brutally slaughtered 'poor defenceless animals', is also irrational...
as too is your claim that vegetarians, and vegans, are attention seekers...
you just don't think any of your 'arguments' (!) through do you :)
oh and it's vegans (not vegens)
