*Warning Picture Is Distressing* Four Dead Newborn Puppies Found At Rhos Mountain, Wrexham

RSPCA Cymru is appealing for information after four dead newborn puppies were found on Rhos Mountain, Wrexham. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

The puppies were found on Plas Drain Road on Wednesday 4 May at 7pm by a passer-by. They still had their umbilical cords attached. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

RSPCA inspector Tim Jones said: “This was a very sad call to receive. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

“It looks like these puppies were dumped, but we don’t know if they were already dead or had been alive when they had been left. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

“They were so young they still had their umbilical cords attached. They look like springer spaniel type puppies. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

“There were no injuries or marks on them so we don’t know what happened to them and we are appealing for information to try and find out what happened. What ever happened it is heartbreaking.” ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​
