Animal cruelty can finally give jail time

This is something everybody knows about. There are thousnads of animals a day being abused and killed by some stupid people that treat animals like objects that don’t have a life. These people even share horrible videos on the internet of what they were doing and was to hard to catch and get punished.

Here in Portugal it is illegal to mistreat an animal and can give you up to 5 years in jail if charged. This is a good thing. there were too many animals that were abused, even at home. They have a bunch of rules about what is considered violence against an animal and this is what helps them decide if they should be charged or not.

It doesn’t matter what kind of animals it is, each animal is a life and life should be treasued and not taken away because somebody decided to play god. It is horrible.

The government is finally doing something right around here. There are other situations with animals that have been solved and i hope they solve the rest.

It makes me happy to know that if i see someone mistreat an animal really bad and i make a complaint, that something will happen. They will do something, at least look into it because they need to by law.

I am not sure how the situtation stayed but here on the island there was a kennel that was getting overlotted that decided to just electrocute the dogs in a little house and throw them to the side like trash. This is one of the horrible things people should be punished for. I hope that this kennel got what they deserved and stopped this horrible act.

Some people don’t value what animals can give us daily. Dogs can  help depressed people and find diseases and drugs just by smelling. They help their owner whenever they can and loves you no matter what. Then you see those people that don’t care and feel like slapping sense back into their head.
