Teachers dog torture
A primary school teacher is facing two years in jail after she left her pregnant dog chained up in her kitchen while she went on holiday - for seven months.
While Olivia Perszewska, 29, was enjoying the high life, her desperately hungry dog gave birth to five pups which all agonisingly starved to death with their mum.
The dead pups were found trying to suckle from their mother's lifeless body after neighbours in Strzemieszyce, Poland, called the police after listening to weeks of desperate howling.
Pictures of the dead pups with their mum have outraged animal lovers across Europe.
Now school bosses have suspended Perszewska, who had been taking unpaid leave from her job and is now facing animal cruelty charges.
Neighbour Edith Tymaszanka, 55, said. "What on earth does this woman teach our children if this is how she treats her pets? She is a disgrace."
But defiant Perszewska claims she simply "forgot" she had to leave food saying: "I love my dogs and I do not feel guilty."

SHE SHOULD BE KEPT IN JAIL FOR SIX MONTH WITH NO FOOD AND SEE WHAT WILL HAPPEN. SHE SHOULD FEEL SAME PAIN. IT IS STILL NOT ENOUGH, NO MOTHER DESERVE TO WATCH PUPPIES DYING.

"She simply "forgot" she had to leave food saying: "I love my dogs and I do not feel guilty."" Well if she did love them she would not have forgotten to leave some food and anyways, who leaves a dog for half a year without asking anyone to look after it ??? And the best part is that in the same sentence she states she loves her dog and she doesn't care he died ... Animal torturers make me sick, if you don't have the guts to get on with your life or sort out your problems, you take it out on a kitten or a dog ? That's pathetic, and a disgrace to themselves and everyone else...
