Abandoned Elderly Dog With Tumor Spurs Appeal for Information

Hey, listen to this story about a dog named Milo. He is a white Staffordshire Bull Terrier. People believe someone tied him to railings at a vet on Victoria Road in Runcorn. Security cameras caught two hooded people leaving him in the dark around 7:18 AM on Thursday, February 6.

Milo had blue rope tying him and two blankets with him. One blanket had a dinosaur picture. The cameras show the people abandoning him.

A vet checked Milo over afterward. His body was in rough shape, sadly. He had a neck tumor on the left side that went untreated for months.

The RSPCA investigated Milo’s past. He was rehomed from a rescue in 2014, but his owner gave him up quickly because a family member had allergies. A couple then adopted Milo near Birchwood and Cinnamon Brow. We do not have more details about them, nor do we know his name now.

The RSPCA thinks the two people in the video know things. They likely walked to the vet near the canal. Milo’s tumor was huge, like a small grapefruit. An inspector named Showering talked about Milo. He said someone tried to help Milo, but it was too late. His tumor was infected and awful.

The vet staff were upset by Milo’s condition. The RSPCA wants to know why he was like this. They need to find out what happened to the poor thing. The inspector recommends seeking aid if you struggle. Vets and animal charities give good advice all the time, and they really can help in tough times.

If you know Milo or anything about this, please call. Contact the RSPCA at 0300 123 8018. Use reference number 01443342.
