    the RSPCA!!!!

    cheers for the replies lads.......steve fair play if you dont wont the images on here mate but the fact you removed them only shows how disturbing they are!!! i can guarantee you all this story is 100% true and has caused uproar on the forum i got it off and facebook, twitter etc etc..........if you want to help animals, support your local, privately ran kennels or wildlife rescue centre......DONT have nothing to with these people!! they are scum.......
  16. the RSPCA took the dog in this top picture off a hunting lad pending an investigation, it died in their care. The bottom picture is how it was returned to him after his solicitor requested the body back so it could be examined by his vet.. People really need to see past the front they show to the public. They are no more than a political group abusing their status as an animal rescue organisation to enforce their own political views.. full story here...... "The warrant supposedly stated encouraging a dog to fight with a wild animal, they did not show me or leave a copy they took 9 dogs. On the Monday I had a call from the solicitor saying they had called him stating a dog had died the day before IE Sunday. My vet went out and examined the rest of the dogs and was informed the dog had died Monday the RSPCA has never contacted me informing me that one of my sons dog was dead. I asked Clive to find out what had happened? I get a copy of a message he got, that 3 German Shepard's had attacked and killed the dog, the dog was 8 week pregnant at the time. They informed my vet that the body had been sent to Essex for an examination, so I got Clive to request that my vet also had chance to examine the body to make sure it was my sons dog and that there was nothing amiss. They told the vet it would be dropped off Tuesday, surprising that was a no show from them. On Friday night 8pm they dropped it at my vets they wanted it back Monday morning he called me to and told me the report on the dead dog was very damming to the RSPCA and did I want him to proceed with an autopsy? I asked if i could come with my son to make sure it was his dog? When we saw it the skin had been removed, the head removed and she was in bits, there was no way possible to say it was his dog. We scanned the dog and contents of the bag and no micro chip that she was registered with was present, they knew before hand through Clive we were going to go and identify the dog she had only been in there care 2 days, I firmly believe that the RSPCA did this act deliberately. I have found out another dog has been attacked and bitten about the head, I have photos and there own vet report stating no marks on the dog. They granted me access Friday 25 to see my dogs they only fetched 4 dogs. Out of the 4 dogs one was emaciated and had lost 1/3 of his weight with bites to his back legs and tail. I pointed this out to the police and the RSPCA that were present, and the answer I got was to email them with a complaint. I then asked the office why he would not do something abut them starving the dog and the injuries his reply was report the matter to the RSPCA. It’s like there a law unto themselves. I went to the police station to report the fact that they had killed one dog, had injured anther and the emaciated dog, There reply you, will have to write to the RSPCA as its nothing to do with them. I did ask them if it was there duty to stop or prevent any acts of cruelty? They would not answer. Hunting in the UK is legal under the DEFRA guidelines (rat rabbit and fox for the protection of game birds). " I no this is an arb forum but this has really got my back up!!! an innocent dog killed in their "care" and returned to its owner skinned and its head chopped off two days after being taken away........ :thumbdown:
  17. Cheers spud!! There is quite alot of play in it to be fair!!! Looks like it is bar and chain which is ok as i thought the saw was knackered!!!

    """spud""

    Dont really post alot on here but read it alot and spud always comes across to me that he does these saws for the fact he enjoys the person getting back a saw they have big dreams for actually living that dream lol Lets be honest he could make thousands out this site but i cant remember anyone on here saying they had a bad deal with him!!! AND lets not forget this isnt a guy getting praise on "rose trimming monthly" for his award winning cutting scissor re revits....... this guy is getting constant positive results on machines used day in and day out in the trade on a place like this full of "tree workers" groundies can enjoy it to..... full respect from me for not milking it imo.....in a day an age thats "rip of britain" its refreshing to see theres people out there still willling to share the skills as a cottage industry.....some things aint about money to some people...... I no someone who paid £150 to get a new pot and piston put in a spear and jackson saw he brought from argos for £99.... the guy who fixed it promised it would come back twice as powerful...... thing came back worse than it went with a USED pot and piston and the chainbrake not working 3 out of 5 times i hit it with my wrist...... theres 1000s of people out there working on chainsaws who shouldnt be and giving them back to 10000s of people who shouldnt using them!!! Spuds doing it for working men at working mans prices.....fair play.....
