Police are appealing for witnesses as a family offer a crowdfunded reward for information
BBC News, SuffolkAllison Riches, who lives in Brampton, Suffolk, found her pet, Peanut, unable to move his back legs on Wednesday evening.As the 20-month-old's injuries were so severe the family decided to have him put down.
"I felt sick to think there is a person who can actually do that to an animal" said Mrs Riches, who lives with her husband and two grandsons. The vet said Peanut had a damaged tail, spine and bowel and had a mark on its fur that looked like it was caused by a boot. Mrs Riches said she was "overwhelmed" by the support from neighbours who helped raise money for a reward to encourage people with information to come forward.
