A senior dog thrown away like a piece of garbage is expected to survive after he was found tied up inside a trash bag with his muzzle taped shut, writes dogheirs
The 10-year-old Shepherd mix named Saint Vincent was rescued after a Good Samaritan saw a plastic bag moving near a trash bin by the Jackie Robinson Parkway in New York. The person could hear breathing inside the bag and immediately called New York Police Department (NYPD).
The NYPD reached out to New York Bully Crew, a dog rescue that saves many abused and neglected dogs. Veterinarians believe the dog could have been trapped inside the bag for as long as a week!
Saint Vincent held on to life despite the cruel efforts of the person who left him to die.
But he was in very bad shape when he was found.
“He was bleeding from the nose, like I said, his mouth was taped up,” Carla Mohan with New York Bully Crew told WABC. “He was covered in urine. He has complete urine scalds all over his body.”
Warning, some of the video footage of Saint Vincent being freed from the garbage bag may be disturbing to some viewers.
