El Dorado County Animal Services showed up, and they immediately agreed to take the dog.
El Dorado County Animal Services Chief Henry Brzezinski said: "That’s just a horrendous thing to do to an animal, That’s why animal shelters exist. We’ll take animals in if people no longer want them. We work with people if they can’t afford an owner surrender fee. So there’s always a shelter around that’s going to work with somebody."
According to the El Dorado County Animal Services:
"[The dog] was very well nourished, he looked like he was really well cared for, so we're puzzled as to what happened."
