Sickening photographs of a dog named Yeni hanging by the neck have recently emerged on the Internet. This killing occurred in the municipality of Villacañas, Spain, and was discovered earlier this week. Yeni's hind legs were well on the ground when she was found, which means that it must have taken hours, perhaps even days, before she finally died.

This incident has been reported to the local police, but unfortunately dog hanging and animal cruelty in general is a common occurrence in Spain and most often goes by unpunished.
