In Tampa Florida, police officers are looking for the person who threw a days-old puppy in the dumpster.

It all began when a concerned citizen called 911 when she heard crying inside a trash can and discovered the runt of a litter of four puppies discarded and thrown away like garbage. The puppy was so small and when the she found it, the poor thing was inside a tied plastic bag. Luckily, the authorities acted quickly, or the puppy would’ve died in the midday heat. They also  found the mother dog and her three other puppies underneath a nearby shed.

Thankfully, the rescuers got there in time to save the poor pup. The mother dog and her puppies are now under the care of Hillsborough County Animal Control.
