Officers say the dog they call Doug was found on the side of a highway.
Officers with the Lexington-Fayette Animal Care and Control said they found the dog they call Doug near I-75 at Athens Boonesboro.“These are very significant injuries that he is going to have to overcome,” Sgt. Aaron Evans, of Lexington-Fayette Animal Care and Control, said.“We see several weeks of surgeries ahead of that,” she said. “So he will go into foster care before he is available for adoption.
“We have seen a rise in loose dogs, and it is hard to attribute it to one specific thing,” Evans said. Pets looking for new homes come to the Humane Society, which relies entirely on private donations, grants and community support to function. “We have lots of animals looking for homes and encourage people to come out, visit with them and hopefully take one home such as Doug,” Hawkins said.Copyright 2023 WKYT via CNN Newsource.
