Spring Lake dog attacked with samurai sword
A dog in Spring Lake was injured after a neighbor got annoyed with the dog's barking and attacked it with a samurai sword.
Dr. John Lauby, director of Cumberland County Animal Services, said officials responded to the home Wednesday after they learned about the attack.
The unidentified assailant cut off about three-quarters of the dog's ear and left a large cut on the dog's shoulder area, Lauby said.
"It is ghastly," Lauby said. "Animals, they don't understand their ears cut off. They just deal with it."
Lauby said the owner initially thought the dog was hit by a car. However, a different neighbor who was not involved in the incident, told the owner what happened.

This has to be one of the most horrific stories that I have ever read. WTVD also has pictures and a related video on their site. I want to warn everyone before they watch the video to be prepared for some really graphic images. It's sickening that an individual did this to that dog. I hope they get prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
