Are the laws on animal cruelty too lax?

The recent case of a dog abuser from Ansfelden raises some questions. The 45-year-old kept 44 dogs hidden in his cellar, some of them trained to fight. The police also found drugs, weapons and counterfeit money in the perpetrator's home. The man was sentenced to 24 months in prison, eight of which were unconditional. Are our laws on animal cruelty too lax? Where does our justice system need to change? Let us know in the comments!
