一名英国男子在被严重忽视的狗Ruby因未经治疗而死亡后,被判处缓刑和动物禁令。 A UK man got a suspended sentence and animal ban after his severely neglected dog, Ruby, died from untreated conditions.

来自Jaywick的71岁男子Dennis Ramsey在2025年2月发现Dogue de Bordeaux的Ruby处于危急状态后,被判处缓刑26个星期的徒刑和10年禁止拥有动物。 A 71-year-old man from Jaywick, Dennis Ramsey, was given a suspended 26-week prison sentence and a 10-year ban on owning animals after his Dogue de Bordeaux, Ruby, was found in critical condition in February 2025. 这只仅比健康体重低28公斤至14公斤的狗已经消瘦,患有未经治疗的皮肤病、压力疼痛和呼吸困难,原因是鼻壳结扎。 The dog, weighing just 28kg—14kg below her healthy weight—was emaciated, suffering from untreated skin disease, pressure sores, and breathing difficulties due to nasal crusting. 她以前在2022年和2024年曾因皮肤问题接受过治疗,但未能得到后续治疗。 She had previously been treated for skin issues in 2022 and 2024, but follow-up care was missed. Ruby在兽医诊所倒下后被人道安乐死，法庭听证会上她很可能忍受了数周的痛苦。 Ruby was humanely euthanized after collapsing at a vet clinic, with the court hearing she likely endured weeks of suffering. Ramsey对两项《动物福利法》罪行认罪,对年龄和精神健康表示悔恨,并被命令支付500英镑的费用和154英镑附加费。 Ramsey, who pleaded guilty to two Animal Welfare Act offences, expressed remorse citing age and mental health, and was ordered to pay £500 in costs and a £154 surcharge. RSPCA强调,及时的兽医护理本可以防止她的死亡。 The RSPCA stressed that timely veterinary care could have prevented her death.
