Southwest Florida Crime Stoppers is asking the public to help find the owners of a dog who appeared to be neglected, abused, and abandoned.
The pitbull mix was found on Friday by a local resident in the area of Pinehurst Avenue and Pembroke Street in Lehigh Acres.
The resident noticed several deep lacerations around the dog’s neck and midsection called 911 for help.
The dog was taken to a local vet who treated her for her injuries.
The dog is unchipped and has no tags,, making it difficult to find her owner, Crime Stoppers said.
The dog has since been moved to Lee County Domestic Animal Services where she is continuing to heal from her injuries.
Anyone with information on who her owners are is asked to call 1-800-780-8477 or submit a tip online at www.southwestfloridacrimestoppers.com
