Please retweet CONVICTED | Levi Balmer, aged 20, from #Rutherglen, #Glasgow #G73 #SCOTLAND – tortured a puppy to death - AVOIDS JAIL!!!! 📢📢📢 #UK Feb 2026. Balmer caused the 16-week-old Cane Corso/American bulldog crossbreed physical and mental suffering which left her in such severe pain that she died. He inflicted horrendous injuries against the puppy, which included deliberately burning her and striking her multiple times, causing numerous fractures and wounds. He held her on a hot surface leaving her with second and third-degree burns. He also physically attacked the dog and fractured one of her teeth. She suffered scalding to her face, hind limbs, tail and pads, was bleeding from a wound to her shoulder. Blood was coming from her nose and mouth combined with lameness and swelling. She was in acute pain prior to death. On Christmas Eve 2024, a call was made to the Scottish SPCA Animal Helpline by a vet with concerns about the condition of a deceased dog that had been brought into the practice. The vet explained Mabel had been brought into the practice multiple times before with serious injuries and that there were suspicions she had suffered significant abuse. A Scottish SPCA Inspector spoke to Levi Balmer on the phone, and an investigation was launched into the cause of Mabel’s death. The Scottish SPCA requested permission for Mabel’s body to be uplifted in order to carry out a post-mortem, which Balmer agreed to. On the same day, the Inspector attended the vet to see Mabel’s body. The Scottish SPCA Inspector said: “The image of Mabel still follows me to this day. It was quickly evident she has been victim of extreme abuse and cruelty during her short life; her wounds were so severe. It is one of the most distressing cases I have ever dealt with.” Balmer admitted causing unnecessary physical and mental suffering to Mabel. This had left her in such severe pain that she passed away, with her death likely being caused by pain-related stress. Sentencing | 162-hour community payback order; 12 months of social work supervision. A 10-year ban.
