CUMRU TOWNSHIP, P.a., –
The Animal Rescue League of Berks County's Department of Animal Protection is calling on the community to help identify the owners of a Siberian Husky-type dog. The dog was removed this week from a residence located at 1417 Monroe Street in the City of Reading.
“We received an animal cruelty complaint for this address on August 2, and after arriving at the property, we noticed the dog tethered to a stake in the backyard with no water. We provided water to the canine while contact was established with the owners,” said Sergeant Hayden Carroll, manager of the Department of Animal Protection at the ARL. “We arrived back at the scene this morning, and an eviction notice was posted on the property door. Neighbors indicated that they saw the family move out yesterday, leaving the dog behind, which gave us the authority to take possession of the dog while we investigate the case.”
Veterinarian, Dr. John Hurst, who works at the ARL, inspected the dog and determined that it appeared to be in good physical shape. Additionally, there were no indications of significant dehydration.
Any person with information that can lead the Animal Protection Officers to the owners of this dog can contact the ARL by calling 610-373-8830 ext. 400.
