The heartbreaking story of abandoned dog Snoop

The RSPCA has thanked the thousands of people who have offered to foster or re-home a dog who was seen abandoned on CCTV, at the side of a road in Stoke-on-Trent.

Now named Snoop, they say he's currently safe and sound and getting the attention he deserves.

CCTV footage of him trying to run after a car after he's abandoned has been viewed millions of times, with many people directly offering to take Snoop in.

The CCTV, that was recorded at 5pm on Monday 17 December, is now forming part of an investigation.
