Inspector Patrick Bailey
“The RSPCA is devoted in its dedication to preventing cruelty to animals and I am proud to be able to play my part in achieving this, and now it’s your opportunity to join me.
Whilst I realise finances are stretched in almost every household across the country at the moment, I would be most grateful for a donation for this fantastic charity.”
Here is just one example of why Patrick needs your support...
Puppies thrown away like trash
In October last year the RSPCA were alerted after a member of public discovered two brindle-coloured Staffordshire bull terrier-cross puppies in a black bin bag in an area of woodland in Wiltshire.
When they were discovered they were immediately rushed to a local vet by their finder. Sadly, however the darker brindle pup was found to have ulcerated ruptured eyeballs and was put to sleep to prevent further suffering.
The surviving lighter coloured male puppy was named Piglet, he had an abscess on his back leg.
Piglet was cared for by Wiltshire dog warden staff at Hillcrest Kennels in Coombe Bissett, near Salisbury.
Patrick who investigated the case said,“It was very lucky that even one of the puppies survived, having been dumped so callously. The suffering of the puppy found with ruptured eyeballs does not even bear thinking about and his littermate was not in a much better state.”
