Johnny Depp's Dogs To Be Put Down By Australia?!

Johnny Depp is facing having his two dogs, Pistol & Boo euthanised by Australian customs after he failed to declare them when he entered the country on a private jet.

He and his wife, Amber Heard, returned to Queensland last month to film Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men tell No Tales after flying to the United States to treat an injured hand sustained during filming.

Australian Agriculture Minister Barnaby Joyce says Johnny Depp's two Yorkshire terriers will be destroyed if the dogs are not returned to the United States.

"Just because he's Johnny Depp does not mean he's exempt from Australian law," he told 612 ABC Brisbane on Wednesday.

"The way this works is, if we are going to make an excuse for Johnny Depp with a private jet, who brought in dogs, we have to start making exemptions and excuses for everybody."

"If dogs come in and they have rabies ... the whole life in Brisbane changes. They won't be so sympathetic to Depp at that point in time.

"Think how close it is, it's in Bali, just next door, it's not fanciful stuff. Therefore, we are very diligent about what comes into our nation."
