Emaciated dog abandoned in Stockton alley






The owner of a severely emaciated dog which was found collapsed in a Stockton alleyway is being searched for. The abandoned German Shepherd weighed 11kg (24lb) when she was discovered in Norfolk Street, Oxbridge. The animal was also dehydrated and anemic and had a skin condition and badly matted coat. Animal welfare officers were not sure she would survive but following two weeks of treatment she has put on weight and her condition is improving. Stockton Council animal welfare officers said the dog weighs more than 12kg (26lb) now but the average weight for the breed would be about 25kg (55lb). Council cabinet member for housing and community safety, Councillor Steve Nelson, said: "This is an absolutely awful case of animal cruelty and we are appealing for anyone who may know where she may have come from to get in touch with us in confidence."

The owner did one decent think concerning this dog and that was to dump her where she could be found
how f**king low is that when that's the only decent thing the scumbag did for her, my god what else has this dog suffered while being starved to death. I hope the person that did this gets run over by a big, f**k off bus.. TWICE!!!!

It doesnt bear thinking about what this wee girlie has been through.
Hope to god she gets better and goes on to find a home where she is truely loved.
