The RSPCA has confirmed the name and age of a dog found tied up outside its Wirral headquarters.
The male dog was found tied to the gates of the charity's Wallasey-based centre yesterday, April 6, prompting staff to appeal for information about its owner on social media.
The post sparked a debate among RSPCA supporters, as some believed the dog had been abandoned. However, an RSPCA Wirral spokesman said: "We don’t know that someone hasn’t found him and an owner is looking for him."
