Babette’s heart is in pieces: for four days, her dog, Scarlett, her only company, has disappeared. This three-year-old female American Staffordshire terrier (1) disappeared on Saturday, June 29 in the Pasteur district of Nice-Est. And remains untraceable despite the SOS sent by her owner on Pet Alert, an animal search network with more than 5 million members.
“She fled out of fear.”laments her owner. Babette tells the story “Calvary” that scarlett lived “since she was little.” Suffering inflicted “by a CE2 kid who lives nearby: I live on the ground floor and every time he passes in front of my house, he throws various projectiles at it, in fact everything he finds goes in there: bottles, cans, sticks etc.”
His mistress is going to file a complaint
Saturday morning, “He was with a friend and threw firecrackers at my dog.”
Angry, Babette opened the gate, determined to catch the ill-mannered boy. In a second, the dog, frightened, hurt herself and was nowhere to be found… Babette, however, was inconsolable: “The kid’s dad offered to pay me back for my dog, but it’s not about money, it’s about affection… It’s like I hit his son and I’m offering him money…”
She is going to file a complaint.
Scarlett is chipped and was not wearing her necklace when she fled. She has short, fawn fur and a white spot on her chest.
