The case was described by the RSPCA as “heartbreaking,” with inspectors and veterinary professionals left shocked by the appalling condition the dog was found in.
The case has prompted renewed calls from animal welfare campaigners for stronger penalties and awareness around pet neglect and the importance of seeking veterinary care.
