Prince Dog-Beater: Outrage--Edward repeatedly lashes out at gundogs w/4ft stick

[DeeDee]

It always breaks my heart when such high-profile people (that preach at everyone about being good to the environment and are supposed to be role models all around) are shown to be so hateful toward the animal kingdom that means so much to me.

That's seriously no way to train any dog to work! These photos can't be denied.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not fussing about the fact that he was hunting. I see a reason for hunting as long as the caught prey is eaten--and they most likely do since pheasant is a  popular food over there. It's just the fact that he's striking out at those dogs with at stick that gets me.

The way that dog is cowering, you know he has been beaten before.  Disgusting. Some celebrities, be they royalty or sports "legends", or other "star", seem to think they are above behaving humanely.

Disgusting.  I'm so glad it was caught on camera.
