Heartbreaking video shows dog chasing car after being abandoned

Sickening CCTV video shows a man callously dumping a dog, which chases the car as it drives away.

The heartbreaking footage shows the Staffordshire bull terrier being dumped with his bed, the week before Christmas.

In the video, a vehicle pulls up in Stoke-on-Trent, Britain. A man leaves the car carrying a dog bed and leading a white and black staffie.

He leaves the bed on the pavement and abandons the dog, running back to the car and driving away while the terrified dog repeatedly jumps up at the car's window.

A passer-by found the dog sitting in the bed around an hour later and the RSPCA was alerted.

"The footage has to be seen to be believed; it's just awful," RSPCA inspector Natalie Perehovsky told The Sentinel.

"To see the poor dog in such obvious distress jumping up at the car as it drives away is just heartbreaking. I can't understand how someone could do this."

The dog has been nicknamed Snoop, and he has already received hundreds of offers of adoption.

"He's currently being cared for at a private boarding kennels where he will get all the care he needs whilst I investigate further," Ms Perehovsky told The Sentinel.

"It's beggars belief that someone could abandon a dog like this at Christmas, but we are so thankful to the kind people who found Snoop sitting sadly in his bed, for taking him to the safety of a vets straight away."
