SUDBURY, Mass. – Sudbury police are asking for the public’s help in finding the person or people who abandoned two dogs that were left tied to a picnic table overnight in the area of Horse Pond Road.
Investigators began looking into the animal cruelty case after an officer found a dog on a leash and tied to a picnic table, with the second dog loose. The second dog appeared to have escaped its leash, as a second leash was also found tied to the picnic table, police said.
One dog is a young Cocker Spaniel mix and the other is a Yorkshire Terrier, police said. Both are men.
Police believe the dogs were abandoned between 6 p.m. Tuesday and 7 a.m. Wednesday near 30 Horse Pond Road.
“Although they were wet and exhausted, they are both healthy and are now safe and comfortable,” police said in a statement Wednesday.
Anyone who recognizes the dogs or witnessed one in the area of Horse Pond Road at Boston Post Road Tuesday night or Wednesday morning is asked to call Sudbury police at 978-897-5596 or email at POLICE@sudbury.ma.us.
