“Cases like this are particularly disheartening because the SPCA has an open admission policy, meaning that we will accept any companion animal into our care, regardless of health, breed, behavior or available space,” the SPCA said in a Facebook post.

“This specific case is upsetting as the tote was found about a 5-minute drive away from our Dartmouth shelter.”

Anyone with information is asked to call the SPCA’s hotline at 1-888-703-7722, email [email protected] or complete an online form.
