Animal Welfare Society A resident watched helplessly as the boys set the dog alightThe Animal Welfare Society removed the charred remains of a female pit bull in Hanover Park, Cape Town, at the weekend, after the dog was set alight allegedly by five boys.
"No one should ever have to witness such horror and the ear-piercing screams of the dog crying out in pain will haunt them forever because of the inhuman cruelty these boys did to the animal," said Perrins. According to the organisation, the boys, aged between 10 and 13, cornered and deliberately set the dog alight. Perrins said Du Toit desperately wanted to intervene and stop the boys but was too"shocked and petrified" of violent retribution.
"We collected the badly decomposed carcass and any other evidence we could gather at the scene," Perrins said.
