Police hunt man who threw dog off a cliff and into the sea, while laughing friend filmed it

The senseless acts of violence that are continuously committed against animals are sickening. So many people out there do not deserve a loyal pet such as a dog.

In a very upsetting case recently a man threw a dog off the cliffs and into the sea, while his friend filmed the whole despicable incident.

The person filming can be heard laughing while the terrified dog falls into the sea.

The grainy mobile phone footage shows the dog being thrown from a cliff into the ocean

The video was posted on social media and went viral before it was removed.

In grainy images taken from the video a black and white dog can be seen flailing in the air as it’s thrown from a clifftop in Cornwall, England. Some of these cliffs in Cornwall are over 100ft high.

His friend filmed the appalling act and can be heard laughing in the background, according to a Daily Mail article.

The footage ends as the dog struggles to find its way back to shore and safety

‘Animal cruelty’

Local police, investigating the incident, tweeted: “We are aware of an incident of animal cruelty which has been reported in Falmouth.

“This matter is being investigated but please appreciate that we need to do this effectively without intrusion or inappropriate comments.”

According to Cornwall Live, local police said, the dog, who then swam to the shore, has been checked over and is uninjured.

Please share this senseless act, that caused an innocent animal to suffer, to help raise awareness.

I hope this dog is now safe and the person responsible is caught.
