Hero Sniffer Dog Bruno Killed With Nail-Filled Sausages: Outrage and Calls for Justice
A beloved Italian sniffer dog named Bruno, celebrated for finding missing persons and once honored by the prime minister, was tragically killed after ingesting nail-filled sausages. The dog’s trainer, Arcangelo Caressa, found Bruno in his kennel at the Endas search and rescue training center in Taranto, Puglia, and has since stated that he knows who is responsible. Investigations have been launched by Italian police and the prosecutor’s office. It is suspected that the killing may have been carried out as revenge for Bruno’s role in dismantling dog fighting rings, with the trainer having received death threats in the weeks prior to the incident.
