BEND, Ore. (AP) — A small dog found tied up inside a plastic garbage bag has been adopted and will be going to its new home Tuesday.
On Jan. 4, a motorist pulled off Deschutes Market Road northeast of Bend to use her cell phone. She saw movement coming from a white trash bag next near the road.
Deschutes County Sheriff’s Lt. Gary Decker says the woman tore open the bag and found a small Pug coated in urine and feces.
The Pug was taken to Humane Society of Central Oregon, where it has been recovering from near suffocation.
