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.
