Dog found in Cwm with skin problems, wounds, and fur loss. The RSPCA is appealing for information about the owner.
Sian Burton, an RSPCA animal rescue officer, picked up the dog from the vet and then took him to the RSPCA clinic in Merthyr Tydfil.
The RSPCA named the dog Bruce. He was not well when they found him, suffering from skin problems and open wounds. Bruce scratched himself a lot, lost fur, and seemed thin.
Bruce has a microchip. Sadly, nobody registered the chip, so they cannot find his owner that way. The RSPCA wants to find Bruce’s owner.
If you know anything about Bruce, please call the RSPCA inspectorate appeal line at 0300 123 8018, and remember to mention case number 01449631.
The RSPCA knows money is tight for many and they offer support for worried pet owners. They have a helpline at 0300 123 0650 and you can also look for tips and pet food bank info online.
It can be hard to care for pets right now. The RSPCA urges folks to seek help when needed, as many charities and groups can assist you.
People should research pet costs before getting an animal and consider rescuing a pet instead of buying one. They thank everyone who helped Bruce quickly.
