A litter of new born puppies who had been dumped and left to die in a woodland area were discovered with their umbilical cords still attached to them
. They were thankfully rescued by a passer-by who spotted the five stranded pups and rushed them to a nearby vet where four of them survived, Wales Online reports.
The little pups were too young to be away from their mother so they were hand fed by staff and volunteers who fostered them. RSPCA deputy chief inspector Sara Jordan launched an investigation into finding the person behind the horrific crime and took in one male puppy to look after herself which she named Otter.
Sara said: “It really was touch and go whether these pups would survive but the vet staff were amazing. There is always a big risk when hand-rearing puppies but without a mum we were left with no choice and their immune system was compromised without their mum’s antibodies from her milk." "We fear that we’ll see many more pets being relinquished to charities or abandoned because their owners simply don’t know where to turn. But abandoning tiny puppies like this is so irresponsible and cruel."
