Some dogs are literally treated like rubbish, like Bertie the Yorkshire Terrier who was dumped in a wheelie bin, Peanut the Lurcher who was left to starve under a bush with broken limbs, and Rose who was rescued from drowning in a pond.

Last summer the RSPCA rescued more than 2,800 animals. During the summer months, one pet is abandoned every hour. There are several reasons why more dogs are abandoned during the summer. Some owners seem to have underestimated the various costs associated with owning a dog, like food, vet bills and sitter costs. Other owners seem to have ‘gotten over’ the novelty of having a Christmas puppy. Some dogs are literally treated like rubbish, like Bertie the Yorkshire Terrier who was dumped in a wheelie bin, Peanut the Lurcher who was left to starve under a bush with broken limbs, and Rose who was rescued from drowning in a pond. But please don’t turn away now; dogs like Rose, Bertie, Pe peanut and Maverick need your help. The DogBuddy pack is joining the R SPCA to help promote this advice: If you’re a dog owner, please make sure you plan care for your dog when planning a holiday for yourselves.
