Puppy with rare skin condition rescued after the floods
A Staffordshire Bull Terrier cross puppy, with a skin condition which has left her almost completely bald, is looking for a new home after being abandoned in last weeks downpours.
The puppy, nicknamed Splash by staff at the Dogs Trust, was found wandering the streets in pouring rain by a concerned passer-by in Leeds, West Yorkshire.
A warden took the nearly bald 12-week-old pup to the Dogs Trust centre in Leeds where staff are now tending to the chronic skin condition, known as demodectic mange.
Splash is already starting to improve - and she's looking for a new owner who will have to liaise with the Trusts vet before taking her on. Call 0113 281 4920 for more information or visit the Daybreak website.
