Animal Abuse

Animal abuse is the infliction of suffering or harm to animals. It is definitely inhuman to bring harm to animals. They too have feelings. They will feel the pain that is being brought upon them. In the recent news, there is another case of animal abuse by a woman. She repeatedly hit her dog using a broomstick.

This act of cruelty is definitely not something to be proud of. One should be punished heavily by the law by carrying out such acts. There are many reasons to animal abuse. If an owner cannot stand the behaviour of an animal that he own, then what is the point of getting one in the first place? There is no valid reason to harm the innocent animal. There are also some cases whereby these owners 'train' their animals in a very harsh way, in other words, abusing the pet.

Training your pet might seem as a very tough thing to do. Especially if you want to train it the way you want it to behave. However, one can use positive reinforcement which is another healthy alternative way to treat the pet better.

Therefore, people who brings harm to animals should be given a heavy sentence for their acts because I don't think they would want to be treated in such manner too.
