BANGKOK - A Thai animal protection group on Friday protested outside the German embassy in Bangkok against a German national who stabbed a dog to death last month.

About 50 members of the Call for Animal Rights Thailand and Animal Lovers in Thailand gathered outside the embassy to pass a warning letter to Gert Alfred Grewe, 65, who was accused of killing a golden retriever last month after it attacked his pet rottweiler.

Veena Jitassa, a spokeswoman for the group, charged that Mr Grewe had stabbed the dog 17 times and said they want him to under a mental examination.

The embassy and Mr Grewe were not available for comment.

According to media reports, Mr Grewe stabbed the retriever, named QQ, on Nov 12 while walking his rottweiler in Satthahip, Chonburi province.

Grewe was fined 1,000 baht for destroying another person's property. He has threatened a lawsuit against the retriever's owner, seeking 300,000 baht compensation for injuries he allegedly sustained from QQ.
