Pringles, a little Yorkshire terrier with a severe head injury, was cruelly dumped in the garbage by her owner in Philadelphia. Little Pringles was rescued from the trash when a good Samaritan found her whimpering and looking sickly. The person immediately called for help. Unfortunately, even with the vet doing their best to save Pringles, she passed away from her injuries – but not before her story created a huge outcry. Her heartbreaking story has pushed for Pringles’s owners to be found and brought to justice for all the torture they inflicted on the poor dog.
The Pennsylvania Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) received the distressing call regarding Pringles on Thursday. By the SPCA for Pringles, and the message read, “A passersby had contacted ACCT Philly earlier in the morning when they heard rustling in the trashcan and suspected wildlife. Instead, the injured dog was found and the Pennsylvania SPCA’s Humane Law Enforcement team was contacted immediately for help. The dog…was found underneath trash inside of the can and appeared to have sustained trauma to her head.”
