There have been suggestions from a control collar for something like a bait dog used to train fighting dogs. Or "a homemade collar that some heartless person put on her to keep her from getting through the cattle fences. " But no one has been able to find any information on what or why.
Local Animal Control says he thinks it is just "something cruel" and this might be the case. We all know there are more than enough cruel folks who like to hurt animals, but we're all wondering -- especially the folks who found the dog wearing this -- whether there is a particular reason for this type of cruelty.

A dog was found in the middle of highway traffic with this homemade PVC collar bolted around her neck.
It had been there awhile because the hair around her neck is all broken where it was. It had to be unbolted to get it off.
The whole pipe from end to end is 36 inches long. The bottom half hanging down is about 18 inches long. The top part that stuck above her head is about 10 " tall.
The pipe -- only 4 1/2" inside diameter -- was bolted around the neck of a dog of this size. It was a very tight fit. It was unbolted to take it off the dog wearing it and hung loosely -- unbolted -- with the ends not even meeting around the neck of this dog to give you an idea of what it looked like when used as a "collar."
If you have seen anything like this before, please let us know.

Happy and Safe New Year to you and you family. We've never seen anything so cruel in use. How sick can people be. She looks like a friendly woofy. We're happy for her to have been rescued by loving and caring people. please keep us all posted on if her mean humans are punished for this.
ReplyDeleteThere just seems no end to the ways humans find to inflict cruelty on animals. We are so sad and tired of it. Poor, poor dog.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to Jan and all of the Funny Farm residents.
That poor dog. How cruel. With the joiners at either end, it looks as if it had been attached to something else to immobilise her. I hope whoever did it gets caught, but punishment will catch up with them eventually.
ReplyDeleteThat is very sad. I'm glad that doggy is okay now. I'm always amazed at how cruel people are capable of being. It's actually scary.
ReplyDeleteSo sad. Poor dog, we hope it finds a loving home full of all the love he deserves.
ReplyDeleteHow cruel.
ReplyDeleteWe think it looks like something used for dogfighting. Or maybe some moron decided to just make their own dog "collar" like that to be a jerk.
oh poor puppy. humans can be sooo cruel. im glad to see he is free from that contraption now. many snuggles for him!
ReplyDeletechase
It looks like something real, real mean. Thank goodness it is no longer on the poor dog.
ReplyDeleteWe have never seen anything like that. We are purring for the poor doggie. We hopes it finds a loving home where it can forget all about that horrible thing. ~S,S & C
ReplyDeleteSICK, SICK, SICK PEOPLE!!! grrrrrrrrrrrr... Someone needs to confine that person in a collar like that for months on end!!! :o(

I've never seen anything like that. That poor dog. I hope they can find out who did that to her.
ReplyDeleteWe have never seen anything like it. Some people are so, so, so sick. We can't understand the cruelty and idioty of some humans. They should all be pooped and peed on! Honestly! We'd volunteer!
