LONDON - A man in Britain has been banned from keeping animals and fined 500 pounds after his neglected pet dog got her head stuck in a wall while making a bid for freedom.
RSPCA inspectors found distressed Rottweiler-cross Nikita’s head wedged through a vent outside a filthy flat where she had been trapped for two days with no food or water, the Telegraph reported.
Her owner Montgomery Wandera, 24, of Luton, Beds, had gone away with friends, leaving Nikita alone, and in her desperation she tried to escape though a 6in hole used for the kitchen’s tumble dryer vent.
But after forcing off the plastic vent cover, the animal got stuck leaving her head and body either side of the wall in Luton, Beds.
Neighbours who spotted her forlorn face sticking out of the brickwork alerted the RSPCA, who found the flat filthy with faeces in every room.
Wandera has been banned from having pets for the next five years after admitting neglect at Luton Magistrates’ Court, and along with the fine, he was also given a 12-month community order of 100 hours of unpaid work. (ANI)
