[Karma Strikes Back] Pet Owner Fined For Causing Pain And Suffering To Her Dog



When animal abusers get what they deserve, there is just this slight feeling of satisfaction. A woman who is a rice trader was fined RM2,000, in default three months’ jail for causing pain to her dog.

Chon Kam Foong, 48, was charged with unreasonably causing pain and suffering to her Labrador Cross dog by tightly tying the animal at the neck with a steel chain at her house in Pandan Indah at 4.30pm on November 30 last year.

As reported by The Star, Magistrate Mohamad Firdaus Sadina Ali meted out the fine on Chon who pleaded guilty to the charge. She paid the fine.

She was also ordered to pay RM6,415 to the Veterinary Service Department for treatment cost and boarding for 154 days.

The charge is under Section 44 (1) (d) of the Animals (Amendment) Act 2013 provides a fine of up to RM50,000, or imprisonment for up to a year, or both if found guilty.

A team from the department went to Chon’s house after the department received a report of a 2-year-old dog being caged in front of her house. They found the male dog in pain as its neck was tightly chained and cut marks were visible.

Chon, who was unrepresented, said she was only helping her husband to sell rice and they had four children to support.

I wonder if she would learn her lesson after paying that large sum of money, there should also be a restriction against owning other pets for her!!
