It's assumed by some that these boys deliberately took knives etc. onto the property to attack the dog. In one such assertion it correctly states that there were NO witnesses yet in the same post as per previous it is claimed the boys went onto the property to attack the dog. No witnesses and I'm damned sure the boys are not going to "spill the beans" on exactly what happened and in what sequence. So much speculation by so many. It's a shame that it happened and it's a shame that the dog is dead and indeed it could be speculated that his death was simply not required. That he was declared dangerous and had to be confined to a pen when the owners were not about is no reason for his death. Many dogs spend the days in confinement pens whilst owners are not home. It stops them wandering and getting into trouble and hopefully would prevent the likes of Kodi's problem too. There's a hell of a lot about this story that has not been brought to light, many people who were involved have been let down badly and of course the social media bandwagon has done a fair old beat up on the matter. We'll most likely never know the full true story involved with this unfortunate dog which is the real shame. There are marches etc. in order to change the dog laws that I strongly suspect will fail for many legal reasons. This messy situation is indeed a sad story and it should be a reminder to all of us to be aware of what our dogs are doing and where they are doing it. Not home all day don't leave your dog loose as you'll leave it wide open to such a situation. Pen the dog or leave it inside where it's safe. Dogs, unfortunately, under the laws have no real rights at all and we are not likely to see that change.
