West Bromwich man caught on camera hitting and throwing dogs gets 10-year animal ban
A man has been banned from keeping animals for a decade after being caught on camera mistreating his dogs.
Joshua Evans, aged 19, of Slade Close, West Bromwich, pleaded guilty to five animal welfare offences following an investigation and prosecution by the RSPCA.
The footage, taken through a doorbell camera, was shared with the RSPCA by a housing association and showed Evans inappropriately hitting, throwing, and aggressively handling two Cane Corse-type dogs.
Two dogs, a female named Bella and a male named Buster, were seized by police and placed in the care of the RSPCA.
Both dogs were found to be underweight.
