A thug who killed his pet dog after a 'barbaric' attack left him with at least 25 rib fractures has been jailed for the sickening attack.
30-year-old Andrew MacKay, of Pulton-le-Fylde, Lancs, left the broken body of his grey crossbreed dog, Bonzo with so many fractures that experts could not officially determine how many injuries he sustained.
As MacKay was jailed for four months, Blackpool Magistrates' Court heard how the horrific injuries inflicted on the defenceless dog were 'some of the worst' an RSCPA inspector had ever seen.
MacKay took his pet to a vets in Garstang, Lancashire, on Dec 23, 2019 where he lied and told vets he had tripped over the dog and his 18 stone body fell on him.
The quick-thinking vet suspected that the pet had died as a result of abuse and reported the matter to the RSPCA.
