A dog owner who allowed his border collie to become dangerously overweight and kept his pet in squalid conditions has been banned from keeping animals.

Some don't understand about living in flat's with there mates. It's not as easy to alow them to get outside an do there stuff...
They need to have easy access to the outside world for there own comfort. Sad

You would have thought that the chap would know that the dog needed exercise it's a collie and he was a farm hand......

but then again some people just don't really care and come up with all the excuses possible why it's not their fault!!!!!!!!!!!!

I actually dont think that this case is too bad yes the dog lived in squalid conditons etc but it is very obvious that he was well looked after in other areas. I think the authorities have made an example of him in some ways. If he had of done what he was told originally then perhaps there would have been a different outcome. It is the dog that suffers here with having to be uprooted from his home. I have to say I would rather see a dog in this condition than starved to death. Poor Taz.

Edited to add in body condition NOT living conditions they had to change.

I suppose that although I agree that it is not such a bad thing to have an overweight dog ...

I do hate to see dogs not treated properley i.e not walked..(one of my pet hates as we have loads of families around here that get dogs and then you never see them leave the house..) and also overfed on treats ... It's a bit like kids I suppose that parents just keep giving them sweets to keep them quiet in replace of attention and love....

Yes true... that is why we are all getting fatter!! Especially kids parents are sometimes just too busy to even think about what they are feeding kids. It is really sad if you think about it.
