Pit Bull Stuffed in Rubbermaid Container, Dumped Outside Shelter
We just don't understand why someone would do this.
A volunteer at South Suburban Humane Society in Chicago Heights noticed something out of place Friday.
A Rubbermaid container was placed outside the shelter—inside, a beautiful, 6-month-old female pit bull.
"Sometimes our hearts hurt so much we have to share it with you," shelter staff wrote on its Facebook page.
The pup—dubbed "Pandora" by staff—appears friendly and "so far very healthy!
"She's ecstatic to see all of us and has smothered everyone with kisses."
Patch has reached out to the shelter for adoption information on Pandora. Check back for more.
