A dog that was found tied outside a house in Kirkby-in-Ashfield has died. Jodie Jamieson, 34, found her in the front garden of a property in Mary Street, where Jodie also lives and called the RSPCA to help the "abandoned" dog.
Sadly Jodie later posted an update on Facebook confirming that the pup had to be put to sleep as she was "absolutely riddled with cancer." The dog was not microchipped and so far nobody has been able to contact the owner.
Josie got in contact with Denise Hardwick who runs a UK rescue called Doggy Dens UK Rescue that helps out in similar cases throughout the UK and in Macedonia. Denise condemned the dog's death as an "act of cruelty."
