Overview

• Elizabeth Perrin was filmed striking French bulldogs with a garden spade and a broom, while Trevor Hague was seen kicking one of the dogs in separate footage.
• RSPCA investigations uncovered cramped and unsanitary conditions for 20 French bulldogs at the couple’s Dukinfield property.
• One injured dog, Wizza, was found with puncture wounds and later euthanized due to the severity of his injuries.
• Perrin received a 12-month community order, a 16-week night curfew, and £700 in costs, while Hague was fined £604, ordered to pay £700 costs, and banned from keeping dogs for six months.
• The court allowed Perrin to retain the right to own animals due to her two children’s reliance on support dogs for their special needs.
