    A judge has told a Dunedin man found guilty of ill-treating animals - to be better-trained himself


    Luke James Ruane Maloney has been jailed for six weeks, after his neighbours alerted authorities to him berating two American bulldogs.

    The ODT reports, the 35-year-old's remand status made a prison term the only option.

    He's also banned from owning a pet for two years.

    Judge Jim Large called Maloney's alpha male attitude and discipline in training the animals, concerning.
