An RSPCA investigation is under way after a greyhound was found mutilated in a "sickening act of cruelty".

The animal was found on a grass verge in Bedlington, Northumberland. His ears had been cut off and electrical tape was stuck to his back and legs.

He was taken to a veterinary surgery in Morpeth for treatment and is making a good recovery.

It is thought his ears were deliberately severed to get rid of identification tattoos.

'Unimaginable pain'

The RSPCA is urging anyone who knows who the dog once belonged to, or who may have seen or heard anything suspicious, to get in touch as soon as possible.

Inspector Ian Smith said: "This is a horrific and sickening act of cruelty.

"It is clear this dog's ears have been removed by a sharp implement, which must have caused him unimaginable pain and distress.

"Thankfully he was rescued early and taken to safety, else he easily could have died.

"We just hope someone will now come forward with vital information to help us discover what happened."

  • Not in the least -

    Banbigbrother must have deleted the post himself/herself. If someone removes a post there is very little I can do about it.

    But FYI here is what Banbigbrother wrote..........

    'here we go,one greyhound out of millions has been abused and all of a sudden every greyhound owner is the scum of the earth and racing is cruel,get a life you people are as sad as the person who did this'

  • Banbigbrother - Please read this .

    Dougie is the third greyhound this year - that we know of - to have their ears hacked off and he was only to survive the attack.

    Society - not just animal lovers - wont tolerate this level of abuse and cruelty and any criticism made is not a personal attack on you - its on an industry that fails to promote or enforce any level of welfare.

    Its not just one greyhound in a million - its the thousands.

  • I know brood bitches are DNA tested before their first litter. .Could not a system of DNA recording of each pup born coupled with the paper trail of sale info provide a way of tracking the offending owner/s and a gaol term follow? Owners would be very careful with regards to their dogs whereabouts if they thought they could get gaol time.and a life long ban from the industry.

  • 20mrcaser makes the most ridiculous point I've seen in a long while. The greyhound racing industry needs to be abolished. Thank you for posting this hopeful story with a happy ending. Unfortunately thousands of these dogs do not have happy endings, thanks to the gambling habits of some very stupid people.

  • If the greyhound racing industry abolished the use of ear tattooing it would put end to people committing these barbaric acts . If they need to identify greyhounds why not use micro - chips !

  • Whoever did this to this beautiful dog is an evil swine and I hope their life is full of misery from now on, and when he is caught he does at least 5 years in prison..

  • people who abuse animals have serious deep-seeted psychological problems that may not be cureable. it is likely that animal abusers may be the same thing that charles manson is, and that is what is called antisocial personality disorder and cannot be cured. we can only keep them separated from the rest of the environment for the safety of all.

  • so you saying Greyhound Racing For Ever,speaks volumes,so in my eyes you are also a scumbag...

  • His message is still here its just marked as spam because so many people have given his drivel the thumbs down,..

    I do not talk utter rubbish, I just happen to love Greyhounds, I have four and even though I know the dogs enjoy the races,they do not enjoy the injuries,the awful treatment some (not all)get, I have rescued greys that are nervous wrecks,that flinch everytime you goto stroke them or scream when their ears are touched,because they are roughly treated when racing
