Malu's story - Horribly neglected dog left to die in Oahu!


Horribly neglected dog left to die in Oahu!

This story makes my blood boil!
This kind of cruelty needs to be punished!
An emaciated dog whose body screamed of long-time neglect, was dropped off at theOahu, Hawaii, SPCA on Friday.
According to Saturday's KHON2 News, he had been found by a good Samaritan in a Kunia farm field.
The dog, dubbed "Malulani" by his caregivers, was little more than skin and bones. Not only had he been starved, but he was covered in thousands of ticks. According to the Oahu SPCA, it appeared that Malulani had endured a dreary, lonesome life on the end of a chain.
That pitiful life ended after Malu was taken to the SPCA.
Malu's deplorable state of health did not happen over night. The extent of organ damage he sustained from long-term starvation took time and during that time, he suffered greatly.

  1. This is something that needs to punished by prison time and the ban of the owner from ever having an animal again!

    2. The person or persons who are responsible for this must receive the maximum penalty for the severe abuse to this poor sweet dog.

    3. The animal control side or animal welfare groups should patrol the areas or houses to see and check if there are any dogs chained and starved. Irresponsible owners are high now, and to chain the dogs are very cruel they are not meant to be chained, abused or ill treated, this is not humane, the only thing to control is to do patrol checks on the residences or license the dogs.

    8. Jail and prison are too good for this piece of trash. If your gonna jail them make sure they suffer- no tv internet etc only bread and water and lots of work.

    9. The pos that is responsible for this poor dog needs to receive the same treatment.

    10. I am tearfully compassionate about this and any horrifying abuse like it (abuse includes neglect, to me). What I'm afraid of here is that the petitions we are being asked to sign, that many are signing, are NOT in English. None of them that I have seen. That concerns me because I have seen too many similar LURES getting people to send money or to support a cause the NEVER would support if they understood what they were really signing. So, please, fellow animal lovers and respecters, beware of fraud. First, let's demand that these petitions sent to us always be sent in the English language. That said, never stop your unwavering compassion for animal rights.

    2. Oh my poor little boy....when I think of the many hours, days and weeks of your suffering, it is too much to bear. May you run free in heaven, never to be chained again, and may your belly always be full, in God's arms. On behalf of all humans, I'm so sorry. I wish you had been mine.

  6. Are they able to save this poor dog or did Malu die or have to be put down? People need to be punished for this cruelty. I send many hugs and kisses to you Malu.

  7. Punishment for the owner equal to the punishment the dog endured is illegal unfortunately.

    ReplyDelete
  8. Seriously I think the owner should be shot! There is no excuse for this. This person who did this should be made to suffer the same abuse.

    ReplyDelete
  9. These types of cruelty break my heart. Having a pet and caring for a pet is no different than caring for a child. Those who do this type of horrific act need to be punished to the fullest extent of the law. For if they would do this to a poor defenseless animal then they would also do this to a child. Sick people!!! Just sick!!!

  11. I would love 2 get my hands on the person that owned this dog.... prison time is not good enough for this person.....I would starve him. No food no water.... I would make this fool beg me for his/her life.... prison time is 2 good for this person in prison they will get food & water I say strave them 2 death.....

  12. This is absolutely deplorable..there are no words to describe this disgusting abuse and neglect, nor the pain that fills my heart when I see this and other unspeakable acts of cruelty. May the monsters that cause these poor, helpless animals to suffer have the same pain and suffering come back to them tenfold.

    ReplyDelete
  13. I just don't understand how people could be so cruel and thoughtless. If they didn't want the poor dog, drop it off at the SPCA or give him to someone that will. To leave him starve at the end of a chain should be punishable with prison time and a huge fine. We need to get tougher on people who do this...animal cruelty should not be acceptable or tolerated anywhere at anytime. This makes me sick!

  14. hope you find the owners and do them the same way and then de bal_ the bast__________ you can read between the lines

  15. Thank you good Samaritan for the rescue! As for whoever did this to this poor innocent dog, I hope you will have to endure the same fate someday.

    ReplyDelete
  16. The scary thing is that scums like this often do get another dog. As someone said above, the least we can do is fight not to ever allow them to get another pet. Ever. I know laws r hard to change but this would be a place to start.

  17. Are there any petitions to sign or action I can take. This is absolutely deplorable!!

  19. I hope that everyone gets together to make the punishment for animal abuse so harsh that people are afraid to get an animal if they are an abuser. Is there an animal abuse site yet? Like the sex offender site.

  23. The Hawaiian Humane Society is handling the investigation.

    They believe Malu was a stray dog because he was not micro chipped.

    Anyone with information on who Malu's owner is,is asked to call the Humane Society at 356-2250.

  27. God bless Malulani's soul and the good Samaritan that brought him in. And may justice be done on everyone involved in this cruel case. What a pathetic example of the human spirit!

  29. They won't be properly punished. If they are apprehended, they might just get a small fine and/or community service. Until the community demands proper punishment for this kind of horrendous cruelty and a public register of all convicted animal abusers, it will go on.

  30. Find this monster and lieve him without food and water, chain him or her, and lieve him alone for the rest of his life. Is there the possibility for something good out of this monster? HE MAYBE AN ANIMAL OF THE WORSE KIND. PUNNISH HIM.

  37. ANOTHER SAD SAD CASE OF HORRIFIC CRUELTY...WHERE IS THIS PERSON NOW ? HE/SHE NEEDS TO BE GIVEN JAIL FOR LIFE & THE MAXIMUM FINE.. WHICH IS USUALLY NEVER ENOUGH TO FIT THE CRIME..

  38. This image breaks my heart. how can a human being be so cruel and heartless. I wish for one day I could be punisher for all animal abusers and neglecters. they would be begging me for mercy and I would not give two shots.. people are soo mean, what has this world come to where people can allow themselves to be so selfish and disregardful of other living creatures. they have feelings and hurt just as we do.. but you know what, they will stick with you thru anything even before a human would and they do not discriminate as humans do. and this is how we pay them back. if I had just one wish, it would be for all animals on earth to be loved and cared for and not have to worry about us humans, EVER!!! May they live in peace...

  39. In situations like this I do a personal intervention and take the poor animal to my home, the animals condition is documented, and reported to authorities.

As far as I'm concerned, NO punishment on this earth can be painful enough to punish this obscene "owner" for his horrendous cruelty, so send the monster to fry for eternity in the depths of hell where he belongs!!!!! :(

  46. As soon as I saw the photo, I started to cry. The type of individual who would do this to an animal belongs behind bars in prison or a hospital for the criminally insane! Our laws, that we fight so hard to get passed, do nothing if they are not imposed by authorities! The world would be a much better place had this poor dog survived, and his tormentors did not!! May they suffer each day of their lives, as they forced this poor creature to suffer!

  47. Find the bl...dy owner and tie him down until he reaches 70lbs of weight and then send him to prison, in any other way he won't be able to understand the pain he caused to the poor animal!

  48. So tragic, so terribly sad! To think of all those days he sat there starving, thirsty, and bound, slowly wasting away in pain. I really hope Karma does exist and these people get exactly what they deserve. My love to this little baby wherever he is now.

  50. OK I follow all animal abuse stories along my journey here. Why was it that it took this one good Samaritan to try and save this poor dog? Where were others? Give these creepy monsters some starvation and a bunch of bugs on them for one week. Jail them to the fullest extent of the law. I am so unhappy about this one right now that I am angry. I wish God would put me in a place to save animals like this. notice how this happens to be another pit. UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  54. I am Jewish and I can't but help compare the way we treat animals in this world is as the way the Nazis treated the Jews -- as other, robbed of any individuality, complete lack of respect, with the intent to kill, punish, and torture as many as possible, and erase their existence or any semblance of dignity or their right to life. This has to stop -- it's not okay just because they don't speak our words, just because they don't look like us, does not mean they don't have feelings of their own, wonderment of life of their own, and pain and suffering that is their own.
