JAKARTA (Reuters) - Seven dogs starved of food and water for two weeks are suspected of eating their Indonesian owner after he returned to his hometown in Manado from a holiday, local media reported Tuesday. A neighbourhood guard was curious when he saw luggage lined up at the front of Andre Lumboga's house, days after the 50-year old arrived back home. He approached the house, smelled something foul and called the police, according to a report. "His skull was found in the kitchen, and his body was found in the front of his house," Eriyana, a local police chief in Batam, an island off Sumatra, told VIVAnews website. Lumboga arrived home last Wednesday, but his body was just discovered Monday. "We suspect that the dogs were hungry, so they attacked Andre, because they had not been fed for 14 days," he said. Police also found bones of two other dogs, believed to have also been eaten by the hungry canines. Lumboga was from northern Sulawesi island, a predominantly Christian area, where the local spicy diet is famous in Indonesia for including dogs, bats and forest rats.

Let this be a warning, if you are going to starve your pack of dogs, make sure you return with an opened tin of pedigree chum or else its gona be you.
Owner should have known better than to starve his dogs like that. I didn't realize dogs could survive for 14 days without food or water though.
LOL, one bunch of mean dogs LOL, Totally his fault though, Dogs don't feed themselves yah'no? Or do they ??
how can the owner left his dogs for 14 days unfed..he shud responsible of feeding his dog or his dog will be danger to other ppl..
it says in the article that there were two other dogs' bones, so they were probably eaten before him, but it might not have been enough
