Stray pup hurt by PVC collar(5 Photos)
CHON BURI - A stray dog found with a PVC pipe wrapped around its neck has been promptly rescued in Pattaya.
Photos of the dog, nick-named Nong Brown, were posted on Thonglor Pet Hospital's Facebook page, showing the neck wounds inflicted by the small diameter PVC pipe.
"Nong Brown is a stray dog and someone wrapped the pipe around its neck. As the dog grew bigger, the pipe squashed its neck, causing injuries, a bad smell and great discomfort.
"A good samaritan found the dog and brought it to Thonglor Pet Hospital in Pattaya. We cracked the pipe open and treated the wounds.
"Nong Brown is now safe and is fortunate to have a new loving owner," the hospital wrote on its post.
The hospital also warned pet owners that a collar or harness that is too tight can cause injuries to animals, which cannot remove them unaided.
