Man Drags Newly Adopted Dog With Car As It’s Too Smelly to be in The Car, Gets Fined Only RM60

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY ABSURD!!

On 5th June, photos and videos of a driver went viral on social media when he was caught dragging a dog with a rope that was attached to his car.

The man from Guangdong, China, allegedly tied the dog to the back of his car as he drove because the dog’s stench was too strong. According to Bastille Post, this took place on the same day that the man adopted the dog.

In the video, the black dog is seen lying on the road in exhaustion as the car waits at a traffic light. Soon after, the car starts moving again and the dog is forced to get up and run in an attempt to keep up with the car. But just a few seconds after, it collapses to the ground and is dragged forward as it loses control of its own body.

WARNING: Your heart might break.

My heart shattered to pieces writing this. Hopefully the poor doggy is okay and will find a better home because it truly doesn’t deserve an owner like this. 🙁
