Two German shepherd mix puppies were found abandoned in a box at a Burnaby park recently, with one of the puppies suffering from an injured front leg and an infection.
BC SPCA say a Good Samaritan found the two six-week-old puppies in a box hidden in the bushes at Byrne Creek Park, and were immediately brought to the BC SPCA in Burnaby before being transferred to the community animal centre in Richmond where a foster home was available.
