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 on Tuesday.

A neighborhood 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 on 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.

Feed you dogs.  ;)

Would you believe...6 dogs abandoned for only 1 week, and they just maimed their owner.  (doing their best Maxwell Smart imitation)

You can google the story, I've seen it on several sites. Check it out.

Dogs, hungry, in a pack.  Completely believable.

..."They kill everything," Gleason said in a recent interview. "Cats, dogs, cattle, sheep, horses. We've also had people severely injured by them. We've had people with horrendous bites. We just had a case ... where a man lost 37 sheep to a pack of dogs.

Those dogs must have been seriously hungry to turn on their owner like that (though no mention of the breed of dog?). They were hungry enough to kill and eat two of the dogs trapped with them before the owner came back from holiday so they were quite capable of collectively finishing off a 50 year old man.

Personally, I think the owner was barking up the wrong tree if he thought there would be no consequences to his neglect.

Talk about just desserts.
