Gruesome images! Dog found buried with with nail hammered into its head

 A small dog was today found buried alive with a nail hammered into its head .The gruesome discovery was made by walkers in Kirkleatham Woods, near Redcar.
The couple heard whimpering and discovered a newly turned mound of earth and the dog buried beneath - still alive and with a nail sticking out from between its eyes, according to the Gazette Live .

They called the police before rushing the dog to a nearby vets, who were left with no choice but to put the dog to sleep to end his “immense suffering”. The RSPCA was notified and is now appealing for information.


The walker, who asked not to be identified, told the Gazette he was walking with his wife and three dogs just before 2pm when they heard a noise.

“My wife said ‘listen, there’s a noise’ but I said it was probably just a frog. Then when we listened more carefully, we could hear a slight grunting noise.
“I pulled the ivy back, poked about with a stick and saw some grey fur. Then I realised there was a nose in the mud.”

A nearby workman brought a spade to see what was in the ground - and to everyone’s horror, he pulled the live dog out of the muddy pit.

“I just couldn’t believe it. How could anyone be that despicable and cruel to do something like that?
“I’ve seen some upsetting things in my life but this is right up there. And the vet said it was the worst case of cruelty he’d ever seen in his career.
“Why not get it put to sleep if they didn’t want it? Are there no depths to which humans won’t sink?”

RSPCA inspector Nick Jones said:

“In all my 10 years working for the RSPCA, I have never known anything so horrifying and inexplicably cruel.
“This is clearly a very deliberate act of cruelty and it’s inconceivable to think why somebody has done it to this poor little dog.“It’s likely more than one person was involved in this act of horrific cruelty due to the force needed to inflict such an attack.“He is a white entire male, scruffy-looking terrier type with a curly coat, possibly a Jack Russell or West Highland Terrier crossbreed, and aged around seven years old.“I am urging anybody with any information no matter how small, or who recognises this dog, to come forward and leave me a message in complete confidence on our inspector’s appeal line by calling 0300 123 8018.”
