There’s some good news about a dog that was found abandoned in the bottom of a restroom at a Guelph, Ont.-area conservation area.
Cleo, the six-year-old Chihuahua, is recovering in a foster home almost a month after the dog was left alone inside a holding tank of an outhouse at Guelph Lake Conservation Authority.
Jane Dawkins, director of communications and community engagement at the humane society, said the dog is now being looked after by one of their employees where she will be in a nurturing environment.
“Lindsay Laird is also a registered veterinary technician so she took her home where she can receive 24-hour care,” said Dawkins. “Cleo has excelled in her foster home.”
“After considering Cleo’s unique needs, we believe that being adopted by her foster family with whom she has started to build trust, feel secure and thrive, is the best path forward in her journey,” said Lisa Veit, executive director of the humane society, in a news release.
Veit went on to say that they would normally put abandoned animals up for adoption but made an exception for Cleo.
A conservation officer discovered the dog on May 26 covered in human urine and feces.
