The animal welfare organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) was called after a 5-year-old girl threw her family’s dog Celia off a second-floor balcony to another child who was standing below. As almost anyone can imagine, the consequences were catastrophic for the dog.
Celia came crashing down to the ground, breaking one of her front legs. When one of PETA’s field workers arrived, they were appalled, and they were not surprised to discover that the kindergartner who had thrown Celia had simply mimicked her family’s harsh attitude toward the dog.
