Real life story from Tenerife, Canary Islands –
Tenerife, Canary Islands. A 77 year old man has been arrested because he murdered his pregnant podenca who was due shortly to give birth!
A neighbour reported hearing him kill the dog by beating it to death so agents from the Garachico nature protection service (Seprona) went to the place of the complaint. They found the podenca buried and a vet certified that death was because the animal had received repeated blows in the cranial area, as well as that the hound was about to give birth.
And the following story from Jane Brian of Pepis Refuge, Pedrera, Seville.
