Singapore's Animal and Veterinary Service is investigating an alleged incident of animal mistreatment after videos circulating online showed a dog being abused. Since the filming of the videos, the dog has been adopted by another person. In the videos posted online, a man can be seen holding a dog by its neck and head while repeatedly hitting both its body and face. Earlier on Saturday, SPCA Singapore posted an appeal on Facebook, urging people to come forward with information about the man seen in the videos and the dog’s location. “The authorities were quick to respond this morning and have visited the unit,” SPCA Singapore said.
