A dog who had been left to starve to death in a back garden had "practically scratched herself bald".
Five-year-old Shar Pei Daisy was rescued by RSPCA inspectors back in April after being abandoned in a garden in the Wirral area. Despite suffering from a "terrible skin condition" and being found emaciated, she is now recovering well and is looking for her fresh start.
Being taken to the RSPCA Wirral and Chester branch, animal centre manager Kay Hawthorn said Daisy, and her friend Lady, had been left to "fend for themselves" as they had been left to starve to death. Kay said: "The dogs were incredibly skinny but as soon as they came to us we used a magical treatment called food and they both started to pile on the weight.
