Mervyn Mitton Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 POLICE DOG EATS PET HAMSTER A POLICE dog ate a hamster during a raid on the home of the pet's owner. Officers from Greater Manchester police were raiding the home of a man who has since been prosecuted by the RSPCA. The dog ate the hamster after knocking over it's cage. The home owner was prosecuted over a bald parakeet. Daily Mail. The mind 'boggles' - I'm sure there is more to this - but, how do you mount a 'raid' - with a warrant - in search of a bald parakeet. Are they prosecuting the dog for Cruelty to an animal ? Is it now an offence in the UK to own a bald parrot ? Have any of Craig's dogs ever eaten a hamster whilst on duty ? Have they ever eaten anyone whilst on duty ? This is a most 'serious' matter - I intend to mount a protest over the injustice done to this bald parrot............ Please feel free to comment - or, write to your MP. Mervyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

219PG Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Looks like a drugs raid that didn't find anything so they resorted to animal cruelty when when the bald bird was found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mervyn Mitton Posted May 5, 2013 Author Share Posted May 5, 2013 I see this as blatant discrimination - they wouldn't have dared if the parakeet had been West Indian....................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurence Strong Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Wonder if the dog got any HP Sauce to go with the Hamster Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pylon1357 Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Although this story is amusing, even a little funny (yeah I laughed) is really news? What was the purpose of the raid? Certainly not to site the fellow for a bald bird? If so then why the need for a K-9 unit?? Ok OK, I am going to stop taking this so seriously and just laugh.

Paul R Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 This is the funniest stuff I have read in a long time. I bet it would have been funnier to watch it on the news, on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul R Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I wonder how they got the dog to cough it up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
