A Florida animal protection group says that a stray male dog has been released from surgery after she was found being viciously abused along a Florida road.
Laura Colding, student nutrition manager at Bryan Elementary school, said that she first saw the dog along the side road while driving to work. However, she soon realized that he was not following his leash.
Colding stated that “the most horrible thing” was the verdict. Colding said that the dog was wearing zip ties around her neck and some kind of wire like a phone cord. Her neck was bleeding profusely. The zip ties were embedded in her neck, as you could see. “I couldn’t leave my dog like this.”
Colding claimed that the dog, despite the horrific injuries sustained, was calm and cooperative. She even wag her tail. Colding waited for the rescuers for nearly two hours with the dog.
