About a neighbour who had kept a huge 30kg breed on a short leash on landed property

Thank you SPCA, for the prompt action
I REFER to last Friday's report, 'Animal abuse cases at a high'.

As a lifelong dog owner, I know right from wrong. However, it took me more than a year to muster the courage to call the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) about a neighbour who had kept a huge 30kg breed on a short leash on landed property, barking 24 hours a day.

SPCA's Mr Eric assured me of confidentiality and I noted that a check was made within the next two working days. The dog is now free, dignified and no longer barks non-stop.

Thank you SPCA, for the swift action.
