Hidden cameras,
are made for illegal dumping, in
Kansas City, Missouri helped in saving an abandoned dog. The 3 years old Pit Bull mix was abandoned by his owners at an illegal dumping location in the city. In the video, the poor dog is seen being pushed out of the car and chasing after his owner’s car non-stop.
When city inspector,
Alan Ashurst, watched the pictures of this poor dog, who is now named
Mojave, a week later when reviewing the video he admits he
“Went into a little rage”. The code, usually, catches people throwing trash, tires and junk out of the moving cars. But seeing what happened to the poor dog made
Ashurst very furious!
Ashurst made contacts with an animal health and public safety officer that he knew to help and the two men made their minds find and rescue
Mojave by any possible how. They brought a cage for the dog and on their second day of searching they found him. It just took a can of dog food and
Mojave was near them.
Mojave was taken to
KC Pet Project animal shelter to be put up for adoption. He didn’t spend much time.
“Wow, that was quick! Mojave wasn’t at our Zona Rosa location 30 minutes before this fun couple came in, met him, and fell in love with him, the shelter shared. “They weren’t aware of his story, but we were able to share that with them. He’ll have a new doggie best friend at home to play with a family to love and spoil him. Congrats Mojave!”
Mojave’s previous owner car's license plate was traced by investigators and the previous owners have been charged with animal abandonment, not having a proper pet license, allowing an animal to run at large, and neglecting to have a Pit Bull breed neutered.
Share Mojave’s rescue with your family and friends!
