Dead husky dumped on grass patch. Where were its owners?
The body of this poor husky was discovered on a grass patch next to a canal in
Joo Seng, and a big question came to a STOMPer’s mind: Where were its owners?
Said Dennis, in his email to STOMP:
“We spotted a dead husky beside Block 5, Joo Seng Road.
“I called the SPCA but they referred me to the NEA to say they will send a contractor to clean it up.
“As a husky owner myself, I’m really concerned as to the cause of the husky’s death.
“Where were the owners?
“Could the dog have been abused and just dumped aside like that?
“Nowadays, with more and more cases of animal abuse, it is indeed worrying.”
The SPCA emailed STOMP with this response:
“As much as we would want to be there for every possible animal-related cases, it is, sadly, impossible with the limitations we have. From 11pm till seven the next morning daily, we have one Animal Handling Officer to go for calls of which the animals are very young, in distress or injured.
“From the conversation (over the phone) we had with Dennis that night, it could not be established that the death of the husky was suspect.“Therefore, we suggested that he call the National Environment Agency (NEA). This is our standard operating procedure so as to relieve our staff for other animal rescue efforts going on at the same time.“However, if the caller suspects that the animal may have been abused before it died, we will be there to pick up the carcass as soon as we can so that a post mortem can be carried out.“It is sad, truly, for such a beautiful animal to die without knowing the exact circumstances.“We would like to take this opportunity to remind dog owners to be responsible for their dogs and care for their well-being.Deirdre Moss (Ms)
Executive Officer”The NEA also responded with this statement:“We are pleased to inform you that the carcass has been removed by the Marine Parade Town Council’s contractor this morning (9 Nov), following feedback from the public.”
Some breed like husky are not meant to be kept in singapore same reason as why our zoo will not keep the polar bear. Sad ending for a beautiful animal… sigh
ya… ppl jus keep husky bcos its beautiful and din really take care of their needs… haiz…
That poor baby. I hope that at some point he/she was loved and knew it.
