Italy’s hero dog killed with nail-filled sausages

  • Bruno, a seven-year-old bloodhound hero dog, was found dead at his training centre near Taranto after ingesting sausages filled with nails, causing fatal internal bleeding.
  • Amid Italy’s new animal cruelty law effective July 1, Bruno’s death by sausages filled with nails, possibly motivated by revenge, has triggered police investigations and public outrage.
  • Bruno, a hero bloodhound who saved nine lives and received awards including one from Prime Minister Meloni, was found dead after ingesting nails-filled sausages at his training centre near Taranto.
  • Prime Minister Meloni condemned Bruno’s ‘vile, cowardly’ killing; police review CCTV, and Taranto’s mayor calls for swift justice.
  • Beyond the investigation, animal rights activists urge swift enforcement of Italy’s new cruelty law, which imposes up to four years in prison and €60,000 fines, testing its broader application.
