Neighbourhood security cameras in Baldivis capture shocking scenes of dog being kicked, stomped, hit

Disturbing scenes have been caught on a home security camera of a dog being brutally beaten in Baldivis on Sunday.

Tracey Anderson witnessed the attack and said she could hear the sound of the dog being slammed into the ute “from 10 houses away”.

Ms Anderson says the German Shepard dog was dragged, hit with a belt, and slammed into the back of a ute by one man while another watched on.

At one point she claims the man kicked the dog, and then stomped on it.

The incident occurred about 2pm at the corner of Spinifex Road and Marlberry Lane Baldivis.

The good Samaritan began shouting and ran towards the assault when she saw what was happening.

“I don’t know if they heard me but they did not stop,” Ms Anderson said.

“The other guy got in the car and drove in the other direction while the monster was still kicking the dog in the back.”

Ms Anderson said she doubts the dog would have survived the beating.

An RSPCA WA spokesperson confirmed the incident had been reported to its cruelty hotline and assigned to an inspector for an investigation.

“As such, it is now the matter of an active and open investigation,” the said.

“While we understand acts of alleged animal cruelty are distressing, and people want to do all they can to help, tagging RSPCA WA in posts or encouraging people to keep reporting the incident to us does nothing to enhance or give more status or weight to our investigation.

“In fact, what it does do is tie up valuable resources that are needed to deal with the more than 500 call to our cruelty hotline we receive every week.”

The RSPCA is urging the community to only get in contact if they have fresh footage or witnessed the attack.

Witnesses or anyone with additional CCTV footage can make a report at rspcawa.org.au or on 1300 278 358 quoting job number 224067.
