Sad Cream Puff


This morning while out walking Poppy in General Washburn's Alley we found this cute little dog. Unfortunately, it was tied up to a pickup truck and had no water. I brought it some water and some treats. I thought maybe when I came home for lunch it would be gone but she was still there with the water I had left this morning. I can't imagine the scenario of how this cute dog came to be tied up like this with no water and no food. She was shaking and obviously scared. Also troubling is the fact that she was in this situation for hours in the heat of the day. For all I know the owner of the truck could have found her in an even worse situation and rescued her (she had no tags). I hope that's true. I did notice that the leash had been repositioned when I saw her at lunch so at least this person had been out to check on her.

what a ' cutie patootie '...it looks like a French ' Caniche '
The owner is plenty of good will but has not yet understood that dogs need to... eat and drink.

That is so sad. I wish you could have taken it home with you? Will you continue to check up on it? : (
