What's this world coming to ?

There are always two sides to every story and we all know the gutter press likes a headline punching, heart rendering story to help sell papers but at the end of the day the poor dog has been killed. 
Whether that was by negligence of the owner or negligence of the bike rider the dog still died.
The fact is that the bike rider was clearly aware that he had struck the dog and yet chose not to stop.
The Police will not 'waste' much time on this before filing it because it's not really important to them and there would probably, sadly, not be a  prosecution at the end of it in any case.  Not in the public interest and all that rubbish.Yes but you know as well as I do, that if you did that YOU would get locked up and the lad who killed the dog would more than likely get let off. The world has gone truly mad. And the sickening part of it all is It's getting worse.

On a personal level if anyone ever deliberately injured any of my dogs, i.e. bonfire night, throwing a firework at them, etc, I'd kick the  out of them regardless of the consequences for me.

Although LWs dogs scare the  out of me, I would love to have a German Shepard.

Yonks ago my neighbour rescued a German Shepard that had been abused. Most timid dog in the world. Was absolutely scared of humans. Don't know what  would treat a dog so badly for it to become so scared. I used to take it for daily walks and it would spot me a mile off coming back from school. Was gutted when neighbours moved.

Anyone involved in animal cruelty should be shot.

However, I agree that in this instance the story sounds a little fishy. Reminds me of this advert:
