In Escondido, California nine abandoned puppies were discovered on Thursday stuffed in a sealed dog food bag. The puppies, estimated to be between 10 and 14 days old were found by a Good Samaritan.

According to the San Diego Humane Society, the puppies had been sealed in the bag with duct tape and found at Kit Carson Park. The little ones were shivering from the cold, dehydrated, and covered in their own feces and urine. The organization is asking for the public’s help identifying the person who abandoned the puppies in this way. The San Diego Humane Society is an open admission shelter which means anyone can surrender or bring pets to them.

Fortunately, the nine puppies survived and are being cared for the organization. They were given baths, examined by veterinarians and are now being fostered.

Crime stoppers has offered a $1,000 reward for the arrest and conviction of the responsible person. Anyone with information is asked to contact San Diego Humane Society’s Humane Law Enforcement by calling 619-299-7012.
