Dead dog found hanging from wooden deck

A dog is dead after being found hanging by its neck from a leash tied to a wooden deck.

RCMP Cpl. Scott MacRae says they were called to a house on Weaver Court in Hammonds Plains around 10 o’clock Sunday morning to help animal control officers. MacRae says the husky’s death is a tragic situation.

“It looks like somehow the dog went through the rails and unfortunately hung by his leash,” said MacRae.

MacRae says it’s a hurtful reminder to keep an eye on your dog and to ensure its safety. Animal control is investigating and a referral has been made to the Nova Scotia SPCA for further follow up.
