A dog found abandoned in a cage in Iowa in 18-degree weather is ready to begin a warm and welcoming next chapter.
On Sunday, March 2, the Kings Harvest Pet Rescue No Kill Shelter in Davenport announced on Facebook that, earlier that morning, an unidentified person left a dog unattended in the cold outside of the shelter’s former location.

Special place in Hell reserved for that person. Only thing worse that that I can think of is: What if it was a child?
Would it have taken that much effort to bring it to the proper address that was on the sign where it was abandoned?
I find this very sad because all life is precious.
As Bob Barker always ended the Price Is Right tv show. “Remember to spay and neuter your pets.” That advice should apply to some heartless people too.
