Windsor/Essex County Humane Society officers have laid animal cruelty charges against a Windsor man in a dog starvation case.

The body of a deceased dog was found on March 8, 2017, near an abandoned building at the corner of Louis and Cataraqui in Windsor.

Veterinary findings and the subsequent investigation indicate that the dog had starved to death in the accused’s nearby apartment. 

He has been charged with causing distress to an animal and failing to provide adequate food under the Ontario SPCA Act. 

The causing distress charge carries a possible sentence of two years in jail or a $60,000 fine.  It is the policy of the Humane Society not to publish the names of individuals charged until there has been a conviction.

The accused’s first appearance in court will be Aug. 28.

A decade after the crash, Shannon Valley housing estate , on the outskirts of Ballaghaderreen, in Co Roscommon, remains unfinished and partly in ruins. Although the number of “ unfinished housing developments ” has fallen sharply since 2010, Shannon Valley is one of hundreds that still dot the country. The Guls: ‘Every day I put rats in the bin’ Fatima Gul says her little brother, Yousaf, doesn’t like the rats. He jumps up on the sofa or the table in the living room when they come into the house. Their parents don’t allow Fatimar, who is 10, or her nine-year-old sister, Maryam, or Yousaf and his twin, Zohra, who are five, to play near the houses on the other side of their green. It’s too close to the rats and the rubble. Shannon Valley “ ghost estate ” outside Ballaghaderreen, Co Roscommon.
