Dog Found at Abandoned Daycare Can’t Hide His Relief When Help Arrives

Local authorities are investigating the mysterious circumstances surrounding a starving dog who was found locked inside a kennel at an abandoned doggy daycare center in Vancouver, British Columbia. The staff at the British Columbia SPCA was shocked to see the nearly skeletal dog when he was brought into the shelter. His hair was so overgrown, and upon shaving his matted fur, they could see nearly every bone in his body. It’s not clear how or why the dog, now named Gator, was left at the doggie daycare, but authorities are looking into the cruelty case. While Gator is battling many health issues, he’s expected to make a full recovery with some extra TLC and vet care.

The conditions he was living in were horrifying, the SPCA staff said. “He would not have survived another day if he was not found when he was,” the BC SPCA staff told Richmond News. While Gator was found very much at death’s door, his caregivers say he’s very lovable and social. Despite what he’s been through at the hands of people, Gator can’t get enough of them. “...
