Abused Animals - Grand Pyrenean Mountain Dog in Corsavy
Posted: Wed 26 Mar 2014 10:27
Two days ago, I passed through Corsavy from the Batere side and noticed a Pyrenean Mountain dog guarding sheep in a field on the right just before you enter the village.
The dog is Ina shocking condition and suffering from some skin ailment like mange - large areas of its body are now just pink raw skin and it was dragging the exposed areas on the grass probably to try scratch the itch.
The heartbreaking part, is that it was still loyally on duty guarding the sheep of the owner, who couldn't be bothered to treat the animal must less give it time off to recover.
It was lunchtime and all was closed, so I could not find anyone to report it too in the village - also since the animal is in full view of everyone in the village, I assume no one there really cares enough to do something about it anyway.
Does anyone one on the forum know the correct procedure to report such cases to some organization or person that can and will do something.
I fear that a simple rap on the knuckles of the owner or an embarrassing call will just result in worse conditions and treatment of the dog.
Any ideas ??
