Shot... Again: shot with a gun... over a half dozen puppies to death, in their cages, in the pet shop, to prevent owners from retrieving their puppies that had been rightfully purchased. All so that the owners wouldn't cross the illegally constructed internal boundaries.
Unless you're talking about a different event, it was fifteen dogs in a dog pound in Bourke, not half a dozen in a pet shop.
I was under the impression that it was a pet shop. Do you have a source I can confirm? I assume there wasn't two.
