Puppy dumped on a doorstep in Luton

03.01.13

We are appealing for information about a three-month-old puppy suffering from severe skin condition which was dumped on the doorstep of a house in Luton.

 

The female, brown and white, Jack Russell terrier has been named ‘Flower’ by the animal centre caring for her. She was abandoned on the evening of Saturday, 29 December in Acworth Crescent in Luton.

The person who called the RSPCA said that they had been watching television when they heard a light tap on their back door. They thought someone had knocked and run off but when they opened the door they found the puppy shivering on their doorstep.

 

Heartlessly abandoned 

RSPCA Inspector Kirsty Withnall said:

"Flower is extremely thin and suffering from fur loss caused by an allergic reaction to skin mites.

"She has a lovely nature and was microchipped. But the person identified by the microchip log said they had rehomed her with someone in Bedford."

She added:

Some heartless person has just dumped her not knowing if she would be cared for by the people who found her.
