Chesapeake, VA – The police are hoping that a member of the public will come forward with information about an emaciated puppy who was abandoned in a tote near the Chesapeake Transfer Station on Hollowell Lane. As reported by the Virginian-Pilot, the puppy was near death when he was discovered.

Tragically, the puppy was “barely hanging on,” and passed away shortly after being found. The pup is described as a male “bully” breed who was mostly black with a bit of brown mixed in.

Anyone with information is asked to reach out to Chesapeake Animal Services at 757-382-8080 or Chesapeake Police at 757-382-6161. Tipsters can also call the Crime Line at 1-888-Lock-U-Up (1-888-562-5887) or submit tips at p3tips.com or by the p3tips app. Crime Line callers remain anonymous and could be eligible for a cash reward of up to $1,500.
