In an online post, the RHSPCA says the dogs have been “living in unimaginable conditions” and that many are suffering from mange, parasites like tapeworms, and other serious health issues. They added that the road to recovery for these dogs will be long and costly and it will be possible with the help of their Have a Heart Fund, which is now strained by this emergency.
The RHSPCA says they desperately need fosters and funds to help save all of the dogs.
Even though the dogs aren’t ready for adoption, they will need foster homes while they heal. If you are interested in fostering, you can apply here.
The shelter also is taking donations for their Have a Heart Fund, which can be found here.
