"We all" "Us" Do you think you are the only people who use this forum?? Many people use this forum but don`t live in Cyprus to hear the news first hand. Also many people became members of the forum after that news came out. And you also forget that you don`t have to be a member to read this forum, meaning that some who are thinking of moving to Cyprus in the near future (With their dog) may be interested to know that there are certain areas to avoid!!
I have lived in Cyprus for several years and my Father, 30 odd years. We know Cypriots quite well. Mostly very friendly people. We have owned a couple of dogs while living there. We went into town one day, leaving the dog in the cool shade at home, and returned to find the dog alive and full of air gun pellets.!!!!!!! There was too many pellets in her that the vet told us `taking them all out would kill the dog`, so we had to put her down.
We knew who it was but could not prove it. 3 years later, our insane suspect decided to take his own life by hanging himself.
Now I am not saying that it is a wide spread problem, just that some people may be interested to know that some, "SOME" Cypriots
ARE not only crazy enough to kill a dog and it`s owner, but crazy enough to take their own life.
