Puppy's Mouth, Eyes Glued Shut Before Dumping Animal On Road
In a case of animal cruelty, a puppy was found with her eyes and mouth glued shut in Kansas. The eight-month-old was found last Monday lying on the side of the road from where it was later rescued by a Good Samaritan.
According to local reports, the person found that the puppy had severe injuries to her abdomen and that her mouth and eyes were super-glued shut. The dog also had her tongue glued to a side of her mouth. The puppy was later taken by Beauties and Beasts Inc, an animal shelter.
"Somebody did this on purpose. Somebody thought it was funny to torture this little puppy," Randi Carter, with Beauties and Beasts told a local media outlet. "I don't think it's funny, my rescue doesn't think it's funny."
Carter also said that it was evident that the abuser intentionally tried to torture the puppy. Veterinarians also believe it was no accident as there was no glue in any other part of the dog's body.
"My guess is they held her head up, and glued her eyes shut. No way this was an accident, no way," Carter said.
The animal rescue group offered a $1,000 reward for tips that lead to the arrest of the suspect
The group said the puppy was alive and recovering. However, it was unclear who the dog belonged to. The dog also suffered from ulcers that developed on her eyes due to contact with the super-glue. The ulcers are yet to be healed.
"Her finder thought she had possibly been hit by a car and upon closer examination quickly realized the extent of the situation and rushed her to the emergency vetVeterinary Emergency & Specialty Hospital of Wichitaa where she received immediate treatment, she is recovering but needs your help to bring justice to catch her abuser. This was an intentional act and someone who is capable of harming an innocent little dog is extremely dangerous, they will continue this pattern of abuse on helpless victims," a post on the Beauties and Beasts' Facebook page read.
Social media users expressed their outrage over the incident.
"Doubtful, but hopeful they will find the sub-human, psychopath MONSTER who did this..... glue his mouth and eyes shut, beat the tar out of him and leave him on the side of the road!!!! This makes my blood boil seeing how cruel a human being can be to a defenseless animal!!!!! Surely, there has to be a place in hell for someone who does things like this!!!!" one user wrote in the comments section of a post about the dog on Beauties and Beasts' Facebook page.
Another said: "People are sick when people do this I feel like they deserve it done to them eye for an eye. I believe in karma I hope you know what's coming for you. I love Animals how can you be that way and don't feel guilty or bad about it this really upset my belly."
