WELSH MAN FINED FOR NEGLECTING INJURED DOG ON FARM
Dyfrig John Davies, aged 64, of St Clears, Carmarthenshire, appeared at Llanelli Magistrates’ Court on September 19.
He pleaded guilty to failing to ensure the needs of Floss, the dog, were met by not providing proper veterinary treatment for her injuries.
The rescue dog was found with traumatic injuries, including an amputation of one paw and exposed bones, after being in a fight.
The court heard Davies had arranged for a gamekeeper to shoot Floss, but this was not carried out, and he accepted he should have taken her to a vet instead.
He was sentenced to an 18-week prison sentence suspended for 12 months, ordered to pay a £154 victim surcharge and £400 in costs.
He was also asked to consider a personal donation to the RSPCA for the dog’s treatment.
