- Missouri, USA -
The Kansas City-based nonprofit KC Pet Project announced in a Facebook post that its Animal Services Division is investigating the death of a dog who was found hanging from a tree in Blue Valley Park near 23rd Street and Topping Avenue.
The nonprofit said that on Friday, June 10, its animal cruelty investigation team received a call reporting the gruesome discovery.
On the scene, officers found “a small black and tan dog laying partially inside a Goodwill shopping bag”, said KC Pet Project.
The furbaby had a rope tied around his snout and his head. Inside the bag was a small rag.
The shelter explained that officers recognized the dog from a picture of a missing dog posted on the Facebook Group “Lost and Found Pets of KC” on June 9.
The VOICELESS VICTIM was identified as Buddy, a 2-year-old terrier mix, and his guardian was Ms. Nancy Morgan.
Ms. Morgan, a great grandmother who lives in an apartment near the park, spoke with FOX 4.
She said the furbaby was named Buddy because he was her best friend. She got him as a puppy about three years ago and he’s always been there for her.
Ms. Morgan explained that she is diabetic and Buddy would alert the family to dips in insulin from diabetes and her falls.
“Any kind of problem I had, he was there with me, he barked, he raised the devil”, said Ms. Morgan.
FOX 4 reports that through a mix-up with family, Buddy was left tied up out back while Ms. Morgan was out to dinner. When she returned, she found out that Buddy was gone.
“I have no idea why someone would be that mean and do what they did with Buddy”, said a tearful and extremely emotional Ms. Morgan.
If you have any information about Buddy’s death, please do the right thing and speak up for the VOICELESS VICTIM.
