Debs Loves Dogs

A serial dog abuser who once appeared on Jeremy Kyle after he rammed an umbrella down a terrified dog's throat has attacked more dogs, leaving one dead and another injured. Serial dog abuser DAVID POGMORE, 35, from Warsop viciously assaulted two pugs, leaving one dead and the other severely injured. In September 2012, Pogmore was sent to prison for four months and banned from keeping animals for 15 years after attacking a sprnger spaniel called Ruby. The court heard how he pushed an umbrella into the terrified dog's throat and pinned her to the floor with a walking stick. She suffered a swollen, bloodshot eye, bruising around the head, a cut to back of the head and bleeding from a cut to the back of the throat. In November 2016 Pogmore appeared on The Jeremy Kyle Show puportedly to find out the results of a paternity test. Jeremy then confronted Pogmore after unexptectedly revealing details of his animal cruelty conviction to the audience. Pogmore stormed off the show amid a sea of boos, with the episode making the national newspapers the next day. This month, Pogmore was back before the courts to answer further charges of animal cruelty as well as a breach of his 15-year ban. While details of the case haven't yet made the press, we understand that it related to pugs Bernie and Betsy, both owned by a woman known to Pogmore. The owner took to FB and wrote: "Two years ago, on two separate occasions, this evil bastard abused and seriously injured my Pug dogs. "My baby boy Bernie never recovered. He kicked him so hard that it caused devastating injuries to his spine and brain. Sadly, we had to make the heartbreaking decision to have him put to sleep. "On a separate occasion, he attacked my girl Betsy. He pulled her femur, threw her into a table, badly bruised her head, caused bleeding in her eye, and kicked her twice. She had to undergo surgery and have a metal rod fitted in her leg to hold it together. The damage he caused has changed her life forever. "Betsy is now incontinent, frightened of most men, suffers with PTSD, is terrified of loud noises, and often cries in her sleep. "Today was the sentencing hearing. "He was sentenced to 2 years and 2 months in prison, which he will serve in full, and he has been banned from owning or being around animals again."
