A man in Indonesia left his nine dogs without any food or water for two weeks while he vacationed for the Eid al Fitr holidays. When he returned, his dogs were extremely happy to see him. Not because they loved their owner, Andre Lumboga, but because they were starving. Lumboga was attacked and eaten by his pet dogs shortly after returning home.
According to the Jakarta Globe, Lumboga was attacked by 7 dogs when he returned home after the holidays. The dogs, who had not had food or water in two weeks, also ate two of the weaker dogs.
Lumboga’s body was discovered after a neighborhood guard noticed luggage outside the man’s house, days after he had returned home. The guard approached the house and noticed a funny smell. When police arrived they discovered Lumboga’s mutilated body inside.
A local police chief in Batam, said:
“His skull was found in the kitchen, and his body was found in the front of his house. We suspect that the dogs were hungry, so they attacked Andre, because they had not been fed for 14 days.”
Police say that they were attacked by the 7 dogs when they entered the house and that they had to “paralyze them.”
The Vancouver Sun reports that Lumboga was from Sulawesi island, a place where dog is commonly eaten.
Is this the terrible story of a man being attacked by his best friend? Or a story of unbelievable animal cruelty? Should the 7 dogs be put down or should they be taken to a shelter?
Dog: "Sweet and sour chicken delivered to the front door"...
ReplyDeleteTake them to a shelter. The man got what he deserved...
ReplyDeleteGive the dogs to Lloyd Blankfein and Jamie Dimon please for their house pets!
ReplyDeletePoetic justice and Karma at the same time.
ReplyDeleteKarma!
ReplyDeleteAs you do, so shall you be done to!
These days, the dogs are smarter than the humans. The humans can't seem to figure out why they're starving to death and going bankrupt. Dogs at least know food when they see it.
ReplyDeleteThe dogs should be taken to a shelter where they're fed, watered, and genuinely cared for.
ReplyDeleteThat's my vote.
These days the dogs are smarter than the people. People can't seem to figure out that they are going bankrupt, and continue to pursue policies that will ensure they starve to death. At least the dogs know food when they see it.
ReplyDeleteGood for the dogs.
ReplyDeleteThe dogs should be applauded
ReplyDeleteHmmm, This time the justice was swift and prompt and cruelty paid with instant execution. It wouldn't happen if the dogs were fed, so there's no point in destoying dogs.
ReplyDeleteBut it should be a warning - not to starve the nations...
I'm. A firm believer that a dog will never bight the hand that FEEDS them! :if these dogs haven't eaten for 2 weeks; what did the man expect! ?! There are no bad dogs..
DeleteOnly bad owners!! I have a pitt-bull...I speak from experience
It is a wonderful case of KARMA.
ReplyDeleteThe Dogs now should be released to hunt down other dog eaters.
Dog Lover
The dogs have now ceased to be juvenile mannered canines that most simple minded animal lovers, no scratch that, 'pet lovers' deal with.
ReplyDeleteThose dogs have crossed the threshold into the realm of the wild and not to be trusted anymore as a reliable housepet.
Would you want a dog in your house with your family, that ate fellow canines and its previous owner?
survival of the fittest...........what more could we want.
ReplyDeleteLeave the dogs alone.
Super sad because this dogs would have to be put down.
ReplyDeleteHe deserved it also its just nature dogs are related to wolfs
ReplyDeleteTerrible case of animal cruelty! I hope the dogs are spared and taken to a shelter.
