Kildare Charity Blasts Animal Cruelty And Lack Of Empathy After Three-Week-Old Pup Traded For Drugs

The puppy - newly named Annabelle - is now receiving lots of love and attention with 'My Lovely Horse Rescue'.

The co-founder of a Kildare-based animal charity has made a passionate plea for people to 'get a grip' over animal cruelty.

It comes as Gardaí in the capital seized a 3-week-old puppy being traded for drugs in the city centre on Monday night.

The puppy - newly named Annabelle - is now receiving lots of love and attention with 'My Lovely Horse Rescue'.

But the charity's Martina Kenny says it's the latest in a terrible trail of neglect and abuse.

Baby Annabel 💖💔 This innocent little soul was exchanged for drugs in the early hours of this morning in Dublin City 💔💔 She’s doing good, on puppy milk and lapping it up, we love her 💖 Thank you again An Garda Síochána Kevin Street Dublin for all your help 💖 We’ll keep everyone updated on how baby Annabel is doing 💖 If you’d like to donate towards her care please do, we need all the help we can get 💖💔 https://donate.mylovelyhorserescue.com/
