Lola, the Doberman pinscher puppy that was dumped in Aldergrove after a botched tail cropping, is doing well, with many people applying to give her a new home, says the SPCA.
鈥淲e have had many, many people who have handed in their applications to adopt her and I鈥檓 pretty sure that is already in the works,鈥� said Marcie Moriarty, chief prevention and enforcement officer for the BC SPCA.
As for who inflicted so much suffering on Lola, that is still a mystery.
鈥淲e don鈥檛 have any promising leads as of yet, but we aren鈥檛 giving up,鈥� said Moriarty.
at the side of the road at 264 Street and 64 Avenue on July 2.
The three-month-old pup was found by two Good Samaritans visiting from Alberta. They noticed her lying at the side of the road near some mailboxes and rushed her to the Abbotsford SPCA.
鈥淭he puppy was thin and her tail area was grossly swollen and infected 鈥� oozing puss and blood. She was clearly in a great deal of pain,鈥� said Moriarty.
鈥淗er tail had been wrapped tightly with a plastic zip tie, in an apparent effort to do a home amputation for cosmetic purposes. This was a barbaric act that caused needless suffering to an innocent puppy.鈥�
Anyone with information about this case, is asked to call the BC SPCA Provincial Call Centre at 1-855-622-7722.
