Cable-tied dogs in van spark outrage
The SPCA on Tuesday afternoon said they would be taking action against the owner of the dogs.
PHOTOS of two dogs that had their legs cable-tied in the back of a van have sparked outrage on social media. The dogs were rescued on Tuesday afternoon by the Benoni SPCA who said they would be taking action against the previous owner of the dogs.
In the post uploaded to Facebook, SPCA staff say they were ‘completely horrified’ by the incident.
“The owner who lives in Cloverdene, brought his two dogs, cable-tied at the legs, to the Benoni SPCA for surrender. The poor animals, were transported on the back of a truck, in the sun. The treatment of these animals, is completely unacceptable and the owner should know better than to transport them this way. The dogs have been treated for parasites and are up for adoption immediately,” the post said.
Several people expressed their anger and disgust at the treatment of the dogs.
