'Overbred' dog put down after being abandoned

An 'overbred' dog had to be put down after she was found limping on a busy road.

The American Bulldog had swollen mammary glands and a skin condition when she was found by a member of the public on 18 August.

The RSPCA are now investigating, saying the dog was the third abandoned animal the charity have found in Birmingham in the space of a week.

Anyone with information which can help the RSPCA’s investigation can contact the charity’s appeals line on 0300 123 8018.
