The SPCA said Nelson, a border collie pup, was hurt falling out of a truck. They're hoping the public will contribute to help cover the cost of his care.

The BC SPCA wants to remind people not to include furry family members in the meals.

The BC SPCA estimates veterinary costs could reach $100,000 in connection to the large animal seizure in the Princeton area.

The SPCA says the seized animals from Princeton, B.C., include 43 puppies, 24 adult dogs, 27 horses and three cats.

Despite male boxers typically weighing 70 pounds, Bilbo Waggins weighed less than 30 pounds at the time he was found. 

NB SPCA said the dogs that were involved in the case were given the proper care and have been adopted to new homes throughout the province.

Sometime during the evening hours of Aug. 1, a white and brown border collie was shot on McFarlane Road. The dog later died as a result of its injuries. 

Bilbo Waggings was found severly underweight and with sores, running loose on June 25.

Someone rammed a car through the commercial sliding gate which protects the outside kennels and broke into the building, executive director Dan Fryer says

The SPCA said Bilbo Waggins was spotted running at large by SPCA enforcement officers as they were heading back to the shelter.
