Despite the horrible circumstances, the poor puppy is already receiving excellent care and will soon begin looking for his next home.
The Iowa Animal Rescue League announced that on December 29, Allie, a 1-year-old puppy, was discovered dead.
According to reports, the dog’s owner attempted to fly if he grabbed it for the animal. The owner took the dog out of the airport and returned alone to take the flight. So, Allie was caught in front of the airport.
Bigsen Charles, the dog’s owner, 24, told the Daily Mail that he left the pet to take his flight to New Jersey because “I already registered and I would like to miss my flight.”
I thought the airline would give the dog the doghouse if he bought the ticket. I didn’t know he needed to bring mine.
Charles said he couldn’t find a home for the puppy because he “knew something would end up staying with her.”
According to Today, Allie’s owner gave her to the Iowa Animal Rescue League after she was officially ordered. Despite everything, the dog is healthy.
Tom Colvin, executive director of ARL, described the dog as “most affectionate” and said that she “enjoyed everyone, from the airport staff who came out, brought her mom, sat with her, loved her and gave her everything the attention until we arrived.
“The animal services people saw her and took her away.” She’s pretty nice.
Colvin stated that Allie was safe from the fact that she experienced the coldest weather of the past few days because she was waiting outside for a long time.
He also said that Allie’s situation would soon improve because she would soon be ready for adoption and would start looking for a permanent family.
“Allie will be eligible for adoption once she has her sterilization operation, microchip, and any other necessary veterinary care,” the ARL said in a statement to Today.
Investigations into the matter are now in progress. The abandonment of animals is a crime in Iowa that carries a minimum penalty of $105 and a maximum penalty of two years in prison.
We are happy to report that Allie is doing well and can’t wait to be adopted! For someone to leave their dog unattended like this is sad.
