"Vijesti" has learned that the Ulcinj police are looking for an unknown perpetrator who fired a shot from a firearm at a female Agnes from Šarplanin on Wednesday afternoon, who died of her injuries the following morning in the Veterinary Institution.
"On September 25, 9, around 2024:17.30 p.m., we received a dog with a gunshot wound on both sides of the abdominal wall, the dog was in a very bad condition, it was bleeding, and we immediately started resuscitation and surgery. This report is used for reporting to the police," says the veterinarian's report.
Civil activist, donor and volunteer, Azra Von Der Banck-Tomasevic on social media, she asked for justice for Agnes and every dog in Ulcinj that was mistreated, injured, poisoned or shot.
"Enough is enough, speak up if you are human, report every irresponsible owner who keeps a dog in poor conditions without food, water and without providing veterinary assistance. Don't be afraid...", Von Der Banck-Tomašević wrote, pointing out that the costs of Agnes' treatment were borne by the Swiss animal aid organization "Heart for Montis".
Štojanin reported the shooting and wounding of an innocent dog to the police AM who took Agnes to the veterinary clinic. He told the police that around 17 pm he was in the center of Štoj in front of a market when he heard a shot. He didn't pay attention because he thought it was some kind of fun, but then he saw a gray dog that didn't look right to him.
"I approached him and saw that the dog was bloody and had a wound on the right side of his stomach and was bleeding. I took him and called Azra Von Der Bnack-Tomašević, who organized the transport and hired a veterinarian to help the dog... After the operation, the veterinarian J. R. told Azri that the dog is in a serious condition and will hardly survive," he said.
He added that the dog stayed in the veterinary station all night and died the next morning around 8 o'clock.
Von Der Banck-Tomašević said that the new case of abuse, poisoning and killing of dogs is nothing new, nor is anything changing in Montenegro about it.
"No one has ever been punished for what they did to the poor dogs. Everyone knows who poisons and kills the dogs in Štoj, but they look through their fingers. Nobody will say anything, it's a vicious circle," she said.
She stated that the Sharplani female was probably not sterilized because she did not go through their program.
Agnes might not have even had an earring for abandoned dogs. She didn't go through treatment, nor was she sterilized, but that's why there are institutions and asylums in Ulcinj.
For those who cruelly kill dogs, there are other institutions...
