50 dogs abandoned in Vancouver; donations, calls pour in

September 01, 2013 12:04 AM

Donations and calls are spilling into two Vancouver-region havens where 50 puppies were deserted between Thursday night and Friday morning.

 

Authorities say the canines, for the most part Yorkshire terriers and Chihuahuas, will be spayed or fixed and checked by a vet before they qualify for a response.

 

Consistent with City of Richmond representative Ted Townsend, watching over the pooches is required to cost around $12,000.

 

Two metro Vancouver creature asylums are managing 50 canines that were left at two divide offices overnight on August 30, 2013.

 

About 38 pooches were left outside a Richmond creature haven on August 30. Following this, the RCMP in Richmond has started an examination into the relinquished canines.

 

Thirty-eight modest pooches were discovered in cells that were stacked outside the bolted entryways at the Richmond Animal Protection Society (APS). The cells were secured by a covering. An alternate 12 canines were discovered in the vicinity of 20 kilometres away at a haven in New Westminster, B.C.

 

Carol Reichert of the Richmond APS said that none of the puppies were spayed or fixed, and they didn't have all the earmarks of being family pets.

 

The puppies dropped off at the Richmond APS were overall nurtured, and appeared to be in great health, authorities said, however the majority of the 12 pooches left at the New Westminster APS did not seem very fine.

 

When the puppies have been legitimately processed, they will be up for finding new homes.

 

It is obscure if the two episodes of surrendered mutts are related to each other.
