Golden Retriever Beaten to Death in Restaurant Sparks Outrage and Demands for Justice

The owner took Li Dunchun to a pet hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The autopsy revealed that Li Dunchun had suffered severe internal injuries, including fluid accumulation in his chest cavity and a displaced shoulder fracture, likely caused by human violence. Surveillance footage showed Li Dunchun entering the restaurant at 12:01 pm, and being dragged out by a staff member with a mop just six minutes later. Witnesses also reported hearing cries and screams coming from inside the restaurant. The incident has sparked widespread outrage and condemnation online, with many calling for the restaurant to be held accountable for Li Dunchun's death.

The local authorities have confirmed that they are investigating the incident and are working to determine the cause of Li Dunchun's death. The police have begun investigating the matter, and the owner of the dog has expressed intent to file a lawsuit against the restaurant. As part of the investigation, the dog's owner has requested that the restaurant release its surveillance footage to clarify the details of the incident. The owner has already spent 5,000 yuan to obtain surveillance footage from the public security authorities, which reportedly shows an elderly man beating the dog. However, the restaurant claims that the dog died of unknown causes and refuses to mediate, despite the owner's discovery of the incriminating video and the fact that the dog had severe injuries.

The online community has been abuzz with various opinions regarding the incident. Some netizens believe that the restaurant owner has the right to repel the dog, but the method used must be reasonable and necessary. The use of violence, which led to the dog's death, far exceeds the scope of "repelling" and may constitute intentional harm to others' property or animal cruelty. On the other hand, some netizens think that the dog's owner was negligent in keeping an eye on the dog, allowing it to enter the restaurant, and the restaurant owner has the right to protect the safety of their customers. Many have expressed outrage over the handling of the situation, with some demanding that the restaurant owner be held accountable for their actions.

The incident has sparked a heated debate about animal rights and the responsibility of pet owners. While some argue that the dog's owner should have been more vigilant, others emphasize that violence is never an acceptable solution. The incident has also raised concerns about the need for stricter laws and regulations regarding animal welfare and the importance of treating animals with respect and dignity. As one netizen pointed out, "the way we treat animals reflects our level of civilization." The case is currently under investigation, and many are eagerly awaiting the results, hoping that justice will be served and the truth will be revealed. The owner is preparing to sue the restaurant, seeking justice for the dog's death, and the public is watching closely to see how the case will unfold.
