An elderly stray dog that was "exhausted and starving" stayed in his bed for two whole days and slept" following a rescue by the Dublin Society for Protection of Cruelty to Animals (DSPCA).
Last week rescue workers at the charity found Gandalf, who was underweight. As well as this Gandalf’s coat was in very poor condition with bald patches and his skin was dry and sore with alopecia.
The DSPCA told Dublin Live: "Gandalf was brought to our treatment area and his carer Lynda said that apart from toilet breaks he stayed in his bed for 2 whole days and slept.
