HANNAH BOURDON FROM SANDOWN SHOCKED FOR CRUELTY TO PUG BLUE IN ISLE OF WIGHT

Hannah Louise Bourdon, born around 1986 and residing on Leed Street in Sandown, Isle of Wight, has been convicted of causing unnecessary suffering to her pet dog, a pug named Blue. The incident has drawn significant concern from the local community and animal welfare advocates alike.

According to court records, Bourdon was found guilty of multiple acts of cruelty towards Blue, including kicking the dog, swinging him into a window, and suspending him by his collar. These actions have been described as severe and deliberate, raising questions about her treatment of animals and her capacity for cruelty.

There is anecdotal evidence suggesting that Blue was subjected to ongoing abuse by Bourdon. Witnesses, including a Facebook user, have alleged that they saw her deliberately dropping a heavy suitcase onto the dog, an act that indicates a pattern of neglect and mistreatment. The dog was reportedly removed from Bourdon’s care following her most recent attack, highlighting the seriousness of her actions and the concern for Blue’s well-being.

In sentencing, Bourdon received a 12-month conditional discharge, along with orders to pay £172 in costs and charges. While she was not banned from keeping animals, a deprivation order was issued for Blue, meaning she is no longer permitted to have custody of him. This case underscores the ongoing issues of animal cruelty and the importance of vigilance in protecting vulnerable pets within the community of Sandown and the wider Isle of Wight.
