Absolutely disgusting. He should be banned for life for owning animals. If I had contributed to this cause, I would be feeling duped and sickened. People need to know what kind of a person he really is.

I hope all monies donated are returned. The police need to investigate this as it appears to be an act of fraud and unnecessary cruelty to an animal.

Is there anywhere we can write to expose him? Does the Go Fund me page have a comments section for example?

Great idea. 👍

Looks like you have to subscribe to the Wakefield Express to put a comment in but there are no comments there anyway so I doubt it has a large following, and you need to donate to leave a comment on the Go Fund Me page, and I am not sure how many characters you are allowed as all the comments are very brief.

Seriously….. he’s just an evil thug, he’s getting money from genuine peoples who live animals, he should be done for fraud, heavily fined, then imprisoned for crimes against nature and animals.

Unfortunately Jo, he won't be, they never are, lack of support from the police, the CPS and the judicial system!!

This is appalling. It's still possible to comment on his nauseatingly self-congratulatory FB posts at the moment so I've left a couple of links to this. Feel really sad for the kind folk who have given money.

A life ban on owning any animals and ten minutes in a room with a REAL man to beat the crap out of Tiffin. Evil shit. And chop his hands off so he cant harm any more animals

GREEDY VILE ANIMAL ABUSER MARK TIFFIN, HOW DARE HE SHOW HIS UGLY FACE ON TV. PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW THAT HE IS AN ANIMAL ABUSER AND CLAIM THEIR MONEY BACK.

Vile cretin ! What was he doing out if it is true what is stated in the article that he was under a 12 month jail sentence at the time of the incident! Why did the Police not re arrest him and get him a longer jail term for animal cruelty? The Police are very lack lustre in getting these evil types charged.

The police these days are very lack-lustre in every conceivable way. Common-Purposed Chief Vegetables undertrain & over-indoctrinate them.

This monster needs to be exposed, and he should be immediately banned from keeping any animal. Clearly the law needs to change, to stop protecting callous, cruel, sick individuals,.from exposure and ultimately, prison. The only way I can see, of outing this 'thing' because that is what he is, is going back to the BBC and getting them to investigate him, and show the real story, behind Rose. But they don't like to look like fools, so I doubt they would. A petition would be good, if anyone had the knowledge to get that going ? I've posted on Nextdoor app. That only covers my local area. But please join,and post to your local area. Let's get complaints going, to Go fund me.

K..H, when you said "A petition would be good, if anyone had the knowledge to get that going?" You could try using "change.org" to create a petition, which is a free to use petition site (although they do ask for donations), here: https://www.change.org/l/us/how-to-start-a-petition

I have contacted the person who started the funding, in the hope she might take some action, in regards to the possibility of getting refunds, for those who donated 🤞

Crowdfunder & Go Fund Me are different organisations I think.

"We must understand, that mark tiffin and his "ILK" are "COWARDS", I would "NOT" suggest for a minute, that if "IT" (mark tiffin) was killed in a "bare knuckle fight, that I would be happy, "NO" or "ecstatic", it would be such a "shame" "would it not", while on the subject of "SCUM" who "BADGER BAIT", our friend starmer, (YAWN) did say several days ago, that, "THERE'S A LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL", "NOT FOR THE FUCKING BADGERS THERE'S NOT", "SICK".

I WONDER IF THIS SO CALLED HUMAN WAS TRAINING HIS DOG FOR FUTURE BLOOD SPORTS? I HAVE FORWARED THIS ARTICLE TO MY MP. BUT I DOUBT THEY WILL DO ANYTHING AS THEY GET THEIR STAFF TO GO THROUGH ALL EMAILS/LETTERS AND THEY WILL PROBABLY GIVE A BASIC REPLY IN RESPONSE. I BELEIVE WHAT GOES ROUND COMES ROUND, SO ALL PEOPLE INVOLVED IN BLOODSPORTS GET THEIR JUST DESSERTS.

I have contacted the BBC reporter @JulesBryson on X (twitter) and sent her a link to this article. Hopefully she will pick it up and expose him.

This bastard needs outing in the national news & reporting to the police as an animal abuser & potential fraudster. Although I didn't donate to his 'cause', I have donated to Go Fund Me in the past, but will not do so again until the organisation investigates this man, with apologies & refunds to donors if they were duped. Perhaps GFM also needs to look more closely into the history & reputation of people asking for money.

It's very distressing to think of knuckle-draggers such as this man exploiting dogs, putting them in danger by setting them on innocent wildlife & pretending to be an animal-lover. The bare-faced hypocrisy is astounding. I wish him all the ill in the world.

God only knows what damage this bunch have done to the local area. Firefighters had tried to rescue her but said they could not drill into the rock without damaging the structural integrity of the area. Yet this bunch of "volunteers" spent a week drilling and smashing a huge area by the looks of it from the photos in this article: https://www.halifaxcourier.co.uk/news/people/halifax-dog-rescue-we-said-wed-get-her-out-by-hook-or-by-crook-say-rescuers-of-halifax-dog-stuck-deep-in-rock-for-seven-days-as-they-celebrate-at-pub-tonight-4809685

No doubt leaving it even more dangerous and unsafe.

I said at the time it seemed very suspicious that the RSPCA weren't involved in this rescue and the diggers all looked like they were well used to the activity. Scum bags.
