PET DOG WITH CANCER LEFT TO DIE
CCTV shows a dark figure dumping the dog- A pet dog suffering with cancer has been put down after being dumped at an animal rescue in what officials said is the worst abandonment of any animal they have witnessed. The Rottweiler, named by workers at the PET DOG WITH CANCER LEFT TO DIE as Harris, was heartlessly left to die at 3.45am on Wednesday(Sep 19) at the charity's Coventry and Nuneaton base with a huge tumour on its front leg. he sick owner dragged the dog up the driveway on a sleeping bag and deliberately hid his face from the centre's CCTV cameras leaving the mutt to freeze for over three hours on one of this year's first cold autumn nights. The family pet was then discovered by a member of staff when she arrived at work at 7.30am finding him unable to walk, dangerously thin from malnourishment and in a complete state of collapse. Centre staff rushed the helpless dog to a vets where he was immediately put on a drip as he was desperately dehydrated. His hugely swollen front leg was being caused by the tumour that stretched from his shoulder to his knee that staff said would have been there for months as his bony frame was covered in pressure sores. Sadly after taking x-rays, Harris was put to sleep as the vets revealed the dog was suffering from the bone cancer which surrounded his entire humorous and he was also showing signs of secondary cancer in his chest.
