Yes, I saw that, they have the dog though.
The dog looked so obedient, didnt run off, people dont deserve dogs.

The footage of that dog jumping up at the car, wagging his tail so trustfully, has made me tearful.

If they must get rid of the dog, why not at least take it to a rescue centre.

Here's hoping after the news story there'll be offers to rehome him - from people with the right experience to rebuild his trust and sense of security - it would be lovely if, next Christmas, he was happily settled and being spoilt with Christmas treats.

Oh. Oh this is heartbreaking. I'm currently trying to get a bit more info as to where he's been taken, just out of curiosity...........

Dp will kill me but fuck it.

Dastardly He looks such a friendly dog in the footage and he obviously trusted and liked the people who betrayed him so cruelly. Sad

I know, I hope the owners cock drops off.

Mind you, people will know him, I can't imagine his Christmas is going well.

It’s broke my heart
We have a dog and we have no intention of ever getting a second
But I’ve just said I can’t see it suffer and would have it

That's just made me cuddle arseholepuppy that little bit tighter.

My parents dog was being dumped when they took him. Bastard was fastening his leed to a lamppost and had dumped his food and water bowls. Dad asked him what he was doing and the bloke said oh they didn't expect him to grow so big and didn't want him anymore (he's a Labrador/ mastiff cross). And so dad brought him home temporarily until they could find him a home. I think they've stopped looking after 10 years!!

Hope the dog is ok. I'm worried that it may have been hit by traffic seeing it run after it's owner car like that.

I understand how some people get to the point of not being able to cope but I just don't understand why they wouldn't at least take it to a shelter. I Just hate people that are so cruel, the poor dog must have been heartbroken.

So sad, glad a PP mentioned they at least have the dog, so that's good

Made me really cry. The ginger bastard will get lots of treats tonight! Not like he hasn't had a beach walk and swim and my undivided attention today...

RSPCA found my beautiful blonde greyhound by the side of the toad in Leicester. She lived with us until she passed away age 12 :-) long and very happy life. I wish all that for this cutie

Bastard. Bastard. Bastard.

This will disgust so many people and draw so much attention to this lovely dog that I am sure he will now get a lovely home with people who deserve him. I think he will be very pampered when he does find a new home. I hope he can learn to trust and gets to feel love in a happy home.

We rehomed a cat who had been dumped at the roadside. Bastards were seen just throwing her out of the car and driving off. She died a few years ago, but had a lovely life with us, after her awful start. She was so loving and followed us everywhere.

Good luck Snoop.

I'm not watching it it will upset me too much

I'm pleased he's been found and being cared for though. He looks adorable in the picture at the RSPCA, I'm sure people will come forward to home him after seeing this on the news.

My dog is a rescue and I hate thinking of her being abandoned. She must have thought they would come back for her and they didn’t.

We brought her home in the car and the next time we took her in the car she shook the whole way. We think she must have thought we were taking her back.

I can’t watch it. I saw a still of it and that was enough. It baffles me that anyone could spend even hour with a dog and then just abandon it at the side of the road. They are scum. There is no other name for them. Scum. There is something seriously lacking in both the way you were raised and your actual brain for you to be able to do a thing like this. I truly hope that dog never feels fear like that again. It would kill me to think my dog thought I had left him and wasn’t coming back.

Utter bastards. I love my pets and they bring joy every day. (Yes even the naughty torties). That people would do this beggars belief. Leave it at a rescue. Leave it tied up where it will be found. Do the decent thing and hand it over in person. Don’t abandon it to maybe be hit by a car etc.
I don’t have words. Angry

I saw this and it made me hug my 2 dogs that little bit tighter. I just can't understand why someone would that 😡. The poor dog clearly loved his owner so much and they just dump him like a bit of rubbish.

I hope that this horrible fucking bastard is prosecuted and his new Christmas puppy (a very likely reason for dumping this dog) is taken from him.

Someone dumped a dog in our village a few years ago and I found him jumping up at every car that went past in desperation - he was lucky not to be run over. I re-homed him successfully and hope that this beautiful dog is luckier with his next owners.

Absolute bastard. Angry
