Shocking CCTV footage of a man trying to throw a dog over a 12-foot fence and into an animal centre has emerged.
We’re not sure if the pet owner was incredibly dense or just really cruel when he decided to launch the animal into the the Os Palleiros Animal Protectorate, in Galicia, Spain.
The clip filmed on Thursday showed the poor dog landing back into the man’s arms after crashing against the fence when he failed to throw it high enough.

Luckily he then realised how stupid his first idea was and asked a friend for help, who was sat in the red car they arrived in.
His second plan wasn’t that much better though and involved him climbing up the fence and then lowering the dog over the other side.
This nearly led to the dog being hung on its own lead.
Remarkably the animal seemed to walk away uninjured afterwards but the centre has now launched an appeal to find the two men.
‘These vile men didn’t have second thoughts in doing what you see here to this poor dog in broad daylight,’ a spokesman for Os Palleiros Animal Protectorate said after the video was uploaded on to the centre’s Facebook page yesterday.
‘We will obviously report them to the police. We’re not going to keep quiet. Share this video please. And if anyone thinks they know these men, call the police.’
