Some teenagers saved a dog called Jasper from drowning in the Huddersfield canal at Mossley near Oldham.

They saw a man throw the dog into the canal and got him out of the water. Apparently he had been injured, but they took him to the RSPCA and now Jasper has been reunited with his owner.

It's sick the way some people treat animals though these days. Do any of you out there have any ideas to cut down on this sort of pointless cruelty?
