“The attack was so frenzied the victim discovered one goat s windpipe sitting separated from his body,” the summary says. The victim secured one of the dogs and police secured the other, before they were taken to the city pound. The city council sought the destruction of the dogs, and Judge John Brandts-Giesen agreed when sentencing Philp in Invercargill District Court judge on Thursday. Though Ocean, the brindle collie was the ring leader, Elly, the staffordshire bull terrier, was “part of the action”, he said. An emotional Philp asked the judge if she could “be there” when her dogs were destroyed.
