1. The appellant was charged with an offence against the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Ordinance (Cap. 169) and one for failing to have licences for his dogs. He had twenty-three dogs, which he kept in cages far too small. He was not in a position properly to care for them. Many were in poor condition and sick. He pleaded guilty to both charges. In addition to imposing fines the learned magistrate ordered the dogs to be confiscated.
