'Learned their lesson'...!!!

I doubt anyone who can be cruel to animals , over and over again, will ever learn their lesson..
Cruelty is imbedded deep inside .. it is their nature to harm creatures who can't fight back..
I certainly wouldn't want him or anyone of his like anywhere near Lottie or Bertie our family dogs..
 If they were (Dangerous) pitbulls then I would be happy to let him try to harm them..

Well said Scrumps, kids aren't born cruel but these kids have watched their cruel father as they grew up and as a consequence are now themselves little shytes !

I'm not feeling that sense of Christian love and forgiveness on here.

Too right!

This was not a one-off error of judgement,  he has probably always been the same,  and to add to it, he is teaching his kids to follow on the family tradition.

 Those kids will be cruel to animals because they WANT to.. 
Even a child knows when a creature is hurting.. It is they that decide whether or not to continue the pain..  They obviously enjoy their actions..

A bank robber doesn't always produce a bank robber..

Who knows?  Maybe the story about watching his son pushing a sheep over a cliff was actually him starting to reenact/role play Far From the Madding Crowd?

I agree wholeheartedly with this. Going to jail is a soft option BUT, being made to sit in the stocks in front of the public receiving punishment from animal lovers (in this case) would be a far more scary thing to go through. It would be a much better deterrent in my book.   
As for birching, bring it on.

I agree.  This individual, and others like him, should be repaid in a more serious way than a £500 fine.
Yes, the stocks would be appropriate, assuming that the public could throw appropriate things at him.  A repeat offence would deserve something more appropriate.  Throwing him off a high cliff would suffice.

I am very much an animal lover.  Not in any big way, other than us having two cats, but I despise any intentional harm to any animals which cannot defend themselves.  I'd love to see this 'gentleman' try his luck with a tiger.

OR, one of our Clydesdales. Either one of them could break your foot by just standing on it. Just think what a kick would do.

I knew someone who had Clydesdales .
One day when  unloading a mare and foal from the horse box the foal leapt off the ramp and gave him a kick in passing .
It broke his leg he was in hospital for weeks .

Bloody Ouch, poor guy. As you'll know yourself Clydesdales are huge gentle creatures, BUT, shit happens. I never get behind either of them and if I'm having to approach out of their sight I always call them to me, then give each a half carrot before I start to groom or tack up.
