To ensure more severe prison sentences for animal cruelty
Why is this important?
Stefan McCormick was sentenced to 24 weeks in prison for snapping his 4 month old puppy's legs. When vets attempted to examine it, the dog "screamed" out in pain. The puppy had to be euthanised due to the severity of his injuries. The RSPCA Inspector says he still finds it difficult to talk about the case. He said: "It involved the most disgusting, brutal violence on a defenceless Staffy pup. It still troubles me to think what he went through physically and mentally."
