Starving dogs so badly neglected by Glasgow couple their ribs and spines were visible
A Scottish animal charity has shared images of two animals that were left emaciated due to being neglected by their Glasgow owners.
Crossan received 80 hours of community service and a ban of six years from owning or keeping any animal and McLachlan received 120 hours of community service and a ban of six years from owning or keeping any animal.Scottish SPCA chief inspector McIntyre said: “On 30 January 2022 we attended Carmyle Avenue, Glasgow in response to information we had received from our animal helpline.
“We could see straight away that both dogs were in poor condition. Kenzo was underweight, with her hips and spine visible. Tyson was emaciated, with all ribs clearly visible, as well as his hip bones and spine being very prominent underneath his fur. His skin also appeared to be in poor condition and was very dry and flaky, with some hair loss around his legs and face.
“Both dogs were immediately taken to be examined by a vet who confirmed that Kenzo was very underweight and that no injuries or underlying conditions were evident. “The vet estimated it would have taken a period of at least three months for the dogs to come to be in this condition.
