ISPARTA, TURKEY — Photographs circulating the internet depicting two men standing next to a dog whose ears have just been cut off have led to their arrest.
The details behind the photo are unclear, but reports indicate the two men may have been involved in a dogfighting ring. When their dog lost a fight, they supposedly decided to torture him by cutting off his ears.
A petition started to get justice for the dog notes that the two had a friend videotape the scene, the poor dog screaming in pain. The video has since been taken down.
Authorities have since busted up the animal fighting ring, which led to a number of dogs and roosters being seized.
The two men in the photograph, Hasan Kuzu and Neset Yaman, have since been arrested, and fined roughly $1,150 for their crimes. Meanwhile, the maimed puppy, now without ears, has yet to be found.
