Ademal is seeking help to find the owner of a dog abandoned in the Jameos del Agua area. The puppy was located by a citizen who was walking through the area and reported the events to the association.
The animal was located in the middle of nowhere and tied to a stone, in "very bad condition", "totally dehydrated", with apparent signs of "not having eaten or drunk", they added. The non-profit association has stressed that the animal "could have died of thirst".
Once rescued, the animal experienced several symptoms as a result of the abandonment. "He was limping and complaining of pain," they said. Now it remains for him to undergo the necessary medical tests to "check if his hip is broken," they added.
The animal abuse association is looking for the culprit of this event. "We are looking for the abuser of this dog in La Graciosa", an island in which several people say they "recognize him, with total certainty, because they have seen him walking around there", they pointed out. Ademal has already communicated to Seprona the different clues about who may be the author or authors of this "crime", they added. "Given that there is evidence that a dog with the same characteristics made the trip by boat from the eighth island to Órzola on the afternoon of Saturday, May 18," they stated.
The association has provided a contact number to provide information that may help to find the person responsible, through a call or via WhatsApp at 679 74 46 89, and informs that it will attend to citizens anonymously and confidentially.
