HALIFAX — A Nova Scotia animal rescue group is turning to social media to try and identify a dog that was found at the old Georgefield Landfill Site in Hants County, N.S.
Shelley Cunningham, the president of Litters n’ Critters says the dog, which has been named George, was found with a tight rope around his neck and cuts on his legs. Cunningham says the injuries to his legs indicate that they were likely tied together. George also has numerous cuts to his body and is underweight.
Litters n’ Critters is asking for help from the public to get George healthy again.
Cunningham tells Global News that they need to raise money to help buy special food so he can gain back some of his muscle mass. The dog is currently in the care of a foster family and will be going to get checked out by a vet this week, something that will also cost money. The group is also collecting towels and blankets they can use to make George more comfortable.
Cunningham says they also need Nova Scotians to take a look at George’s picture to try and identify him. “Somebody knows something,” she says. Since posting George’s story to their Facebook page, Litters n’ Critters says it has been seen by over 200,000 people, yet no one has been able to figure out where the dog lived or who his owners may have been.
Litters’ and Critters plan to take George’s case to the RCMP.
