Heading to cells ... snarling Robert Walker, who was jailed yesterday
Heading to cells … snarling Robert Walker, who was jailed yesterday

By JOHN COLES

A THUG whose dog suffered 20 cigarette burns and seven broken ribs was jailed for just 21 days yesterday.

Tammy the terrier, owned by Robert Walker, 28, had to be put down. The case was heard on the day supporters of The Sun’s campaign to stamp out animal cruelty soared past 200,000.

An RSPCA boss told yesterday of the suffering of Walker’s pet dog — and said: “Hand on heart, it’s the worst I’ve seen.”

The five-year-old Staffordshire terrier bitch had TWENTY burns caused by cigarettes being stubbed on her head; SEVEN broken ribs, one of which punctured a lung; TWO perforated ear drums; and all FOUR canine teeth knocked out. Finally, her back was found to be broken.

Tammy had been returned to jobless 28-year-old Walker only three months earlier after a judge overturned a previous ten-year ban on him keeping pets.

On that occasion, Walker had been found guilty of previous ill-treatment to the white and tan bitch.

A new charge that he tortured Tammy was thrown out yesterday by magistrates at Plymouth after a neighbour’s evidence was ruled inadmissible because of a legal loophole.

But Walker was convicted of causing unnecessary suffering by failing to call in a vet.

He was again banned from keeping pets for ten years.


RSPCA Chief Inspector Rebecca Wadey said: “This is the worst case I have ever seen. She was underweight and hanging her head.

“She had scabs all over her head and was really in a very poor way. She was very sad and could barely keep her head up.

“The left side of her rib cage was like a crackly sponge because there was air under her ribs.

“I am not impressed it has taken two prosecutions to get this man jailed. The ban on keeping pets should have been for life.”

    That is simply outrageous!! Some people just simple don’t deserve owning pets.

  3. m-g says:

    The judge should stub out cigarettes on this guy’s face and kick a few ribs out, then withhold medical care for a month or two.

    grrrrrrr!! *fume* i hate pet-abusers! i think its really unfair that such ppl only get such short jail terms. Just like the singaporean guy who mistreated his husky! They shld get several months AT LEAST.

  5. Myrtlevenz says:

    the same thing happened in m’sia. a guy abused his dog n was only fined RM100. the dog was then put to sleep.

    we are now tryin to get as many ppl as possible to sign the petition to the PM to increase the penalty for animal abuse.

    thanks.

    “Sir Alex Ferguson today had no hesitation in naming Ronaldo in his injury-hit squad for the top-of-the-table Old Trafford clash even though the young Portugal international was arrested and questioned by police in connection with a rape allegation on Wednesday.”

    Hmmm.. Maybe the punishment should be changed to let the offenders become a pet themselves and delegated to another abuser for a few months and let them feel the pain…
