WARNING DISTRESSING IMAGES: 'I could see all his ribs spine and hips'
A cruel couple who left their "distressed" dogs in a filthy house filled with urine, faeces and broken glass have avoided jailed.
RSPCA Inspector Lyndsey Taylor went back to the property and was concerned to see one of the dogs who appeared ‘very weak, lethargic and reluctant to get up, but his tail was wagging’. She spoke to a vet who agreed the dog was suffering and she also called the police and ARO Nix. Officers had to use food and Luna to entice her out of the house as she was very frightened. Inspector Taylor said: “As soon as she was outside the house she stopped barking and froze, she was terrified.”
“As I walked through the kitchen I could hear what sounded like lightbulbs shattering under my foot, when I looked there was broken glass. There were empty chewed cans of food and chewed cartons throughout the house. All three dogs - Patch, Luna and Star - were taken to RSPCA Greater Manchester Animal Hospital to be checked by vets, fed and given water. All of the dogs were ‘extremely hungry and thirsty’.
The dogs’ owner contacted the RSPCA asking for the dogs back. She said she’d moved to a new property two/three weeks earlier and was preparing to move the dogs there.
