Just been reading the RSPCA thread and it made me wonder. If not them, who would you report cruelty to?

Dog Warden?
TBH I believe the RSPCA are the only ones who can prosecute. So any cruelty case would inventively go through them.

Our dog warden just tells you to phone the rspca.
Does the Dog's Trust investigate cruelty cases?

Dog wardens have no remit to do with cruelty, although when one sees it they usually have a direct number to local RSPCA Insp. At least I did.

We don't have a dog warden any more. Tory cuts to council money, it's causing quite a problem in the area.

It should really be the RSPCA, however if they are dragging their feet and stringing it out
and you are worried, if the environment is a factor, ie smells, living in excess urine faeces or they are barking then try environmental health/council, even them getting a visit/calling card makes them (owners) aware someone else is aware. Are you worried about a dog, is it the little yorki, did anything happen about that?

Deary me...
Agree, environmental health. I've found HMRC acts very quickly when there is a suggestion that people are making undeclared earnings from their dogs, if that is ever a factor. It's not ideal in terms of dealing with animal cruelty but it helps get 'operations' shut down quickly. Sometimes you have to go in through a different door.

Yes, it is the Yorkie. 
I thought that the RSPCA had taken the poor thing but she/he came back just before Christmas and is stuck in the garden again. I've reported it again but it feels like I'm getting no-where.
Poor thing looks soaked through and is howling all of the time.
Next stop is the noise people at the Council.
CAYLA- your PMs are full.
