A man warned a dog owner to not have "anyone in your house" after putting their dogs through a 'horrific' and 'painful' ear-cropping procedure.
Joshua Ryan Kwiathawski, 25, and Jamie Evans, 30, pleaded guilty to allowing the illegal practice to be carried out on their bull-type dogs Riga and Ace after officers seized messages between the pair discussing hiding the animals to avoid being reported. They also failed to seek care for their dogs' injuries following the crop.
In a series of texts on WhatsApp, Evans asked when he could "post a pic" of Riga, to which Kwiathawski replied: “Not for 4-6 weeks bro, no one in your gaff you don’t know," Wigan Magistrates Court heard as the pair were sentenced on Tuesday (May 9), MEN reports.
