Appalled...

Staffordshire Terrier The beautiful dog seen here is known as a Staffordshire Terrier. Isn't it a cutie? I wouldn't mind having one. Dogs are quiet fun to chill with, pet and rub. To watch the tail wag and the tongue loll out, its nice.
A New Zealand man apparently did not agree. His family had owned one for quiet some time but eventually they decided that it had become a pest. So they decided to do what any family would do.
They decided to cook it. Yes. They cooked their family pet and ate it for dinner.

And do you know what the law said about it?

Well, as long as the dog died in a humane way
it was ok
That is seriously what they said. Under New Zealands Animal Welfare act, if an animal is killed quickly and painlessly it is completely legal.
The dog in question was hit in the head with a hammer, knocked unconscious and its throat slit. Before being skinned and put onto the "barbie".
Nothing like some hot dog.

What has the world come to?
