A terrified dog was launched over a high fence in a "horrific" case of neglect.
Staff at Freshfield Animal Rescue were stunned to find a terrified and freezing Shih Tzu on their grounds when they began work one morning. In what had been described as a "horrible ordeal", the female dog appeared to have been "thrown" over the fence, which is around 18ft high, in cold weather conditions last September.
Debbie Hughes, of Freshfields Animal Rescue, said: "It was totally horrific. We saw someone on CCTV, we didn't get the details of the car, but it looks like someone has pulled up and literally threw her over the wall and just left her. She didn't know what was happening, at first she even gave a little wag of her tail, it's just heartbreaking.
