CONFISCATED DOGS


LSPCA, with the help of the Malawi Police, confiscated 6 dogs from Universal Security Company last week.  The dogs were found in a broken down vehicle which had been transferring them from where they had been guarding.  Someone saw the dogs in the car and, concerned about their health, called LSPCA Veterinarian Sophie to inform her about the situation.  An LSPCA employee was sent to get the Police and, after inquiring what the problem was, it was found that the dogs had been kept there in the sun for over 5 hours without any food or water.  The police took the dogs to LSPCA where they are being treated for skin problems and dehydration.  Already, there is a notable improvement in their health. The company involved is being investigated.
