MUST READ: A Heart-Wrenching Open Letter to The Owner of An Abandoned Dog

Unfortunately, at this time of the year, animal abandonment is a huge concern. To us, it’s absolutely unfathomable to think an owner would abandon their pet. We’re trying to remain impartial but we just cannot understand it. Brooke from Kings SPCA shares our disbelief. Taking to Facebook, she shared an open letter to the owner of an abandoned dog. She writes: “Dear The Callous POS owner of this dog, “Today we noticed a couple of emails from people that had noticed your dog that had been abandoned on 15th ave and Excelsior ave. After looking at the date, your dog had been sitting there since Saturday morning at least. It was 3:00 pm today when we finally noticed the messages because we have been so busy. We decided to drive over and see if we could help. Sure enough there he was. “He waited for you”. The letter heartbreaking continues to detail the story of the dog’s rescue. “He was so hungry that he was eating sticks. Nice people had stopped to drop off food but he was still so hungry and confused. But even with food sitting in front of him he knew he had to wait for you to come back. “He waited for you. “He isn't a bad dog. He is a very good dog. You were a bad friend. You abandoned someone that would give his life for you. Someone who doesn't care how long you stayed away at work. Someone who is just as happy to see you if u just go outside to check the mail or if you leave for days. Someone who would lick the tears off your cheeks and the leftover food from your plate when u were done eating”. Read the post in full below.
