A man from Blyth has been jailed for eight months following a major animal welfare investigation in Northumberland 🐾 ⚖️
Thirty-two-year-old Michael Deas was sentenced at Newcastle Magistrates Court after pleading guilty to twenty-one animal cruelty charges involving several dogs, including five severely malnourished Cane Corso puppies that were found abandoned early last year 🏠💔
Animal welfare officers uncovered shocking levels of neglect, with veterinary experts confirming the animals had suffered greatly from a lack of food and proper medical care.

Pigs love to play in the mud. They don’t like to be covered with their own feces and urine like here👺 They are actually very clean animals. We put them in these horrible diseased conditions. Could you live like this? #LiveVegan stop being complicit to these atrocities 🙏

@Fatcows2 Earth-changing news!! We’re all very grateful to your organization for persisting. We pray that your work continues globally to protect this brilliant creature!

@Sachinettiyil Congratulations! This is the most joyful wedding moment I’ve ever seen! Deep LOVE & GRATITUDE radiates from both of you! Many blessings ❤️
