Bad Experience at Dawn Beach on June 9th...A native male about 19 had his pitbull dog in the water on a chain . Played with the dog in the water for 10 minutes then another ten minutes then another 10 minutes and to our horror carried out the dog in a frantic action. For the next 25 minutes tourists tried to save the dog with mouth to mouth and failed. This was a senseless act of animal cruelty that one could ever witness. The lesson here is that the natives have to be educated on how to care for their animals....I have all the respect in the world on how hard the tourists tried to save the pit-bulls life it was heroric.
