Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kua rāhuitia tētahi wahine 53-tau-te-tau mai i te whai kararehe mō ngā tau 20 i muri i tana whakakahore i ana kuri e rua kia kino rawa ai kia whakamatea rātau. I whakawakia a Peta Brien mō ngā hara mō ngā kararehe i roto i te Kooti Kai-whakawa o Perth i te Paraire i muri i te kore e whakarato i te nui o te kai me te wai mō ngā kuri, me te kore e whai i ngā kaupae hei whakaiti i te kino ki a rātou. I whiua hoki ia ki te kotahi tau, ki te whakahau hapori-i runga i te tikanga me te whakahau ki te utu i nga utu mo te $ 1083. He pikitia o Big Girl, tetahi o nga kuri e rua i tino warewaretia e te wahine Perth a Peta Brien. I whakarerea rāua e rua ki tētahi whare o Maylands, ā, kua ngoikore, engari ko tētahi o ngā kuri, he rārangi shitzu Maltese e rua tau te pakeke, ko Little Man te ingoa, i kitea e takoto mate ana, e tangi ana, e mamae ana i te mate wai, te mate pūhui, me ngā kanohi whākōkī. He nui hoki te huruhuru o Little Man me nga purapura tarutaru i uru ki roto i tona kiri, i puta ai te mate kino me nga kutukutu i roto me te taha o tona rohe o muri. I kī te kaiarotake matua o te RSPCA WA, a Amanda Swift, he tika te whiu nā te mea kāore i tika te mana o te tangata i pēnei te tukino i ngā kuri. Kua rāhuitia te wahine 53-tau-tau i te whai kararehe mō te 20 tau, me te whiua ki te kotahi tau, te tikanga i runga i te hapori me te utu. I whakawakia a Ms Brien mō ngā hara hara hara ki ngā kararehe i te Kooti o Perth Magistrates i te Paraire i muri i te kore e whakarato i te nui o te kai me te wai mō ngā kuri, ā, i te kore e whai i ngā kaupae hei whakaiti i te kino ki a rātou.
