An abandoned dog has a new home after it was found starving and covered in human waste at a conservation area in Guelph, Ont.
The Chihuahua, now known as Cleo, was found in an in-ground outhouse holding tank at the Guelph Lake Conservation Area just north of the city last month.
The Guelph Humane Society said the dog was suffering from severe physical and emotional trauma after her ordeal, but has made remarkable strides towards recovery.
Cleo’s foster parent was trained as a veterinary technician and works as an animal care attendant at the shelter.
In a news release Thursday, Guelph Humane Society announced that Cleo’s foster parent decided to make her a permanent addition to the family.
