South Australian Man Writes Character Reference for his Dog

Just when you thought you'd seen everything.

Mount Gambier Court is handed a character reference for dog

On March 3rd, 2011 Magistrate Jack Fahey was given a character reference by Ron Gilbertson on behalf of his animal, Max, a staffordshire cross.

The controversies surrounding Max began back in 2009 when he was sent to a council pound in Mount Gambier. Max was accused of attacking a neighbour's dog so viciously it required extensive surgery.
Gilbertson subsequently "dog-napped" Max as a last ditch attempt to save his best mate.

In response to charges levelled against him, Gilbertson produced a character reference from a Victorian animal shelter. The reference attests to Max's "good manners" and his nature as a "quiet dog".


... just some (dog) food for thought!
