A DOG was filmed being beaten and kicked in a sickening attack — by a girl aged TWELVE.



The schoolgirl was seen kneeing, slapping and stamping on stunned springer spaniel Jasper in the 13-minute film.

She whipped him with his lead, then stood on his tail with one leg while kicking him with the other.


The girl is seen kicking the pup 14 times, kneeing it 26 times and hitting it with its lead eight times. She slaps it 17 times and stamps on it ten times.

Last night Jasper’s owner Ray Green, in his 60s, choked back tears after seeing the horrific film. Mr Green, who uses a mobility scooter, had let the girl — the daughter of a close pal — take the 18-month-old dog for walks.


But after seeing the video he said she would never walk Jasper again.

Mr Green, of Keighley, West Yorks, said: “I’ve seen enough.

“I can’t believe it. Jasper is a playful thing and is well-treated.

“She was supposed to be teaching him to walk on a lead. What she did is not right. I am really shocked.”

The girl’s family were stunned when they saw the video — and revealed they had thought that she was an “animal lover”. The family has a cat — and had planned to buy the girl a puppy.

Her stunned dad shook his head in disbelief after seeing the film with Mr Green and said: “I don’t understand where this has come from.

Grounded

“She loves animals. She walks a few people’s dogs. A man down the road said she’d end up a vet.

“She’ll not be getting a dog now. I can’t believe what I have just seen.”

He said he would be talking at length to his daughter — who he said would be “grounded”. The attack was filmed by a neighbour in a field near his home. The neighbour, who asked not to be named, said he filmed it as evidence after seeing previous abuse.


He said: “I’d seen her jerk his lead before but nothing like this. I couldn’t believe it. It looked like torture.

“The dog was cowering. It tried to defend itself but she just punched it hard. She should be banned from having a pet for at least ten years.

“In a few years she might be a babysitter and who knows what she might do. I couldn’t believe it was able to walk after all she had put it through.

“It must have been bruised all over. I hope the authorities take some action.”


LINK TO VIDEO - DISTURBING CONTENT

Being a springer, it was still trying its best to please, she needs watching. Someone should give her a bad tempered dog to deal with.

OMG, i feel sick!

She shouldnt be given any dog.

Disgusting.

I'm guessing the link is the video - I don't want to watch it but I would happily watch one of this little bitch having the same done to her.
This country is becoming full of power hungry bullies who are spineless cowards in reality.

No mate. The link goes to the news article.
The video is on the same page, but you have to click play for it to show

I did not look at the video.The description of what went on ,was enough for me.The dog owner obviously trusted the girl; He being a friend of her father.The parents show that what happened was not something that they expected their daughter to be capable of. They seem to be trying to sort her out;which shows a responsible attitude on their part.I think that it will be some time, if ever, before anyone trusts her with a child or animal, unless under supervision.I hope the dog recovers from its traumatic ordeal.

This is part of the problem - most parents believe their children to be little angels. They have no idea who their friends are or where they they spend their time. Too many kids spend hours sat in front of a computer (do as I say, not as I do LOL) playing games which the parents again have no idea of the content. Too many parents will allow a child to buy a computer game totally disregarding the age rating - they ignore 18+ sign. The games are violent beyond belief in a virtual world but sooner or later in translates into real life.
(steps down off soap box)
Yes the parents in this case appear to be as shocked as anyone but is it too late?

I know what I'd do if she was MY daughter!!

First off, I think its 'little angels' like this, who end up doing things like this to the wrong dog, who end up mauled and sometimes missing limbs, and in a few cases dead.

saying that, I've grown up with dogs all my life, I've worked in dog kennels, I've helped out my mum with her dog training business... training 'problem pets'... and never once have I met a dog who is badly behaved of their own accord. 10 times out of 10 its the human who has driven the dog to behave badly...

Now if she was walking a dog that had been... say a staffy that had been raised quite aggressively, and in turn she had been mauled and had the lower half of her arm ripped off, what would be the attitude of everyone who watched the video footage then?

Personally I think that once an animal has attacked a human, it should be put down immediately, as I believe that once an animal has that taste of blood, they will never ever be the same.

and possibly when some humans attack, they should be put down too.

bring on the abuse.... lol

fat betch needs kicking herself

If i was the neighbour filming that, i would have gone out there and slapped that horrible little fat kid around the head a few times, and then draged her back to her dad on a lead, see how she likes it.

i have to agree with you Frick

Shocking......

Had she treated the Staffy the same way, then she would have got all she deserved IMO!! I'd have had NO sympathy for her whatsoever.


The problem is, you don't get chance to see as they are, more often than not, "destroyed" (fookin hate that phrase) as soon as possible. What people tend to forget is that a domestic dog is still, for all intents and purposes, a "wild" animal. That applies whether the dog in question is a Mastiff, a Staff or a Jack Russell (hate them too). ANY dog has the capacity to be a "dangerous" dog, and it is that which gets my back up about the Dangerous Dogs Act. They mention a list of so called "dangerous breeds" but I have to say, it's the likes of the Jack Russells and some other little terrors, sorry, terriers, that seem to be the nastiest - JMPE!


No arguement from me on that honey, apart from the use of the word "possibly"

Dangerous dogs refer to the jaw strength, whilst you can get a flesh bite off any dog, most are unlikely to be life threatening, some dogs like staffs have got huge jaw strength (spot the muscular cheeks), some of these are capable of crushing bone and most are strong enough to keep grip on the human despite all attempts to remove them - with this sort of strength they are much more likely to cause physical disability or even death.

It is like comparing a potato gun to a shotgun, one clearly needs to be controlled the other is a bloomin nuisance but unlikely to caause serious damage.

I know that DD - but it's all relative. If a Jack Russell gets hold of a baby for instance, it's going to be the same or very similar to the likes of a Staff gripping a 5 year old. Even a Jack Russell can bite an adult and cause death - it all depends on WHERE the bite is.

Poor Staffs always get the raw end of the deal - mine is scared of cats and birds. She stood last year while a Boxer (dog not fighter) attacked her - she had no idea what to do. I still have people pull their dogs and children away from mine - just because she is a Staffy. It happened again only this afternoon - a lad on the beach with his young daughter shielding her from Tarot with the girls pink coat (although what use he thought that would be I don't know ). Those on here that have "met" her will tell you just how daft she is. Not a nasty bone in her body

It's bad owners that make bad dogs.

Every dog has the potential to bite, regardless of how good a character they have or how well the dog is brought up. No one can be 100 percent sure they never will. Fear of breeds is brought about by whatever breed the press has got its teeth into ( no pun intended ) at any particular time.

I will only do one more post on this 'cos some get emotive.

Equating a Staff to a shotgun and a Jack Russel to the potato gun, the shotgun is too dangerous to leave around uncontrolled, never mind what its history, it has the power to do major damage. And yes, the potato gun can cause death!

The Jack Russel and the baby story doesn't wash, looking at the statistics for death caused by dogs there are many Jack Russels on the list and loads of bigger jaw dogs, it is very rare a bite of a small dog caused disability or death, though I admit difugurement another possible issue.

All dogs that are in publicly accessible space or have access to publicly accesible space should be muzzled. Any dog left unattended that has access to a child should be muzzled.

Anatomically speaking, the Jack Russell/baby scenario is a very distinct possibility if not a certainty. Like I said, it's relative.

I'd like to see the statistics (although how reliable they are is another matter, we all know what they say about statistics). Where did you find them? Can you post the link for them please hon?

Getting back on topic, I wonder if she will be charged with anything It's a pity we can't muzzle some children too (although I can hear some saying "pity we can't muzzle some adults aswell").

sounds like my rocky lol!! i get all that when i take him out, some pepole it fookin piss me of the way tossers say that staffs are dangerous and its the only dog that gets a bad name. when its the old mans Jack Russell down the road that is going for everyone that is passing. any dog is dangerous if you piss it off i have had rocky for 9 years now and not once has he gone for, or so much as growled at us. It is the owners that makes a dangerous dog.

Damn this planets getting worse

Just seen this, and pretty disgusted - dont think I can really add anymore than has already been said
