Back in July 2021, a waste collector in Granger spotted something unusual while unloading his truck.
Curious, he stopped what he was doing and took a closer look.
Dog found in rubbish truck
What he found shocked him to his very core.
A little white dog was in the middle of the pile of rubbish. The waste collector had no idea how the little dog got there, but it was likely he had been thrown into a rubbish bin and then transferred into the truck without being noticed. He then survived the long journey AND the unloading process. He was lucky to be still alive.
Lucky dog on the road to recovery
The waste collector immediately contacted an animal rescue who could take the dog in and provide him with the necessary care. While the dog was in good health, he remained in custody and could not be adopted until the animal cruelty case was closed.
We hope the little dog got the happy ending he deserved!
