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

Disturbing scenes were captured on home security camera where a dog was brutally beaten in Baldivis on Sunday.

Tracey Anderson witnessed the attack and said she could hear the sound of the dog hitting the womb “10 houses away”.

Ms Anderson said the German Shepard dog was dragged by a man, hit with a belt, and while one man watched, the other watched him.

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

The incident took place at around 14:00 on the corner of Spinifex Road and Marlberry Lane Baldivis.

When the good Samaritan saw what was happening, he started shouting and ran towards the attack.

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

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

Ms Anderson said she doubted the dog would survive the beating.

An RSPCA WA spokesperson confirmed the incident had been reported to the cruelty hotline and an investigator had been assigned to investigate.

“Therefore, the matter is now the subject of an active and open investigation,” he said.

“While we understand that allegations of animal cruelty are distressing and people want to do what they can to help, tagging RSPCA WA in posts or encouraging people to report the incident to us does nothing to enhance our investigation or give it any greater status or weight.

“What it actually does is bring together the valuable resources needed to deal with the more than 500 calls that come into our persecution hotline every week.”

The RSPCA is appealing to the community to only get in touch if they have new footage or witnessed the attack.

Witnesses or anyone with additional CCTV footage can report it at rspcawa.org.au or on 1300 278 358 using business number 224067.
