Three dogs, an adult and two puppies, were rescued this Saturday after being abandoned by a man, around 30 years old, on Rua Joaquim Leitão in the Ramalde area of Porto.
IRA - Animal Intervention and Rescue reported the situation in a post on the social network Facebook, where it stated that several witnesses saw the man "abandoning the family of dogs".
According to the reports, the man was driving a black Opel Corsa. However, the witnesses were unable to note the number plate, as they thought that the individual "was only urinating on the public highway".
It was only when they realised that one of the dogs was "running after the car" that they realised that it was a case of abandonment. The Public Security Police (PSP) were on site and collected the witnesses' statements in order to try to identify the suspect.
The three dogs were taken to a veterinary clinic, where they will be assessed.
