A dog was left to die alone in a dirty cage while her owner went on holiday for two weeks.
Jade Roberts, 26, appeared in court and pleaded guilty to causing unnecessary suffering to the dog, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier named Daisy. The RSPCA began investigating after receiving a call with a concern for the dog's welfare in August 2021.
Inspector Leanne Cragg attended a home on Botanic Place, Liverpool, where she found the brindle and white coloured dog was already dead. Daisy had been alive on July 31, 2021, when Roberts went on holiday for 14 days, as reported by the Liverpool ECHO.
