Dog abandoned with a bag of possesions.

[Catherine]

The poor little dog was left tied up in a park, but he had a bag of his own things with him. It is sad to think of him being left alone like that, but the owners cared enough to want him to still have his own food dish and toys.

I guess economic realities are forcing people to make hard choices. I just wish they would take their dog to a shelter. Better still, many places have animal food banks to help people feed their pets. Abandonment should be the last thing we do. It is just lucky that this time it ended well.
