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.
