Have you seen Myster? The Penticton SPCA is asking for the public’s help after the one-year-old pup was stolen from their shelter on Wednesday.

SPCA officials say a homeless man surrendered the dog to the shelter on Tuesday night. The SPCA was closed Wednesday for Remembrance Day, but when staff arrived to open the shelter Thursday, they noticed the main fence – and the fence into the dog’s kennel – had been cut.

“Whoever took the dog went through the trouble of cutting through two fences at the shelter to get the pup out,” says SPCA branch manager, Carolyn Hawkins. “We are very worried about [the dog’s] welfare and we think he may have been targeted, because no other dogs kennels were cut.”

Myster is a Cane Corso – Whippet mix. Shelter staff say he was quite scared when he was brought into the SPCA and they’re asking anyone who may have seen the pup to contact them or the RCMP.
