Husky That Was Tied To A Fence For 5 Straight Days After Owners Moved Away Is Rescued
December 21, 2020
Heartbreaking story but a good ending.
A dog that was tied to a fence for 5 straight days after its owners moved away has been rescued by the authorities.
Carter, the husky, had a forever home with Curtis Swan and Aaleyah Clay.
The dog was living with its owners in Roselle, New Jersey when the horrible happened.
On December 4, 2020, a wildlife sanctuary named the Popcorn Park Animal Refuge and shared some bad news.
Carter was brought into their Associated Humane Societies Newark facility with a neck wound that was called by vets as severe.
It’s sad to admit that humanity still has a ways to go when it comes to respecting animal rights. Having a pet is a huge responsibility, and so it’s appropriate that there are laws and rights that explain how pets ought to be treated and taken care of.
Well, despite laws, rights, and just general human morality, this one couple is now facing charges for tying their dog to a backyard fence and then leaving to live in their new home in another state.
Meet Carter, a.k.a. Jon Snow, who was recently rescued from being tied to a fence in his own home
