Officials in Ohio have released heart-rending photos of two emaciated female boxers with their bones protruding through their skin in hopes of locating their owner.
According to a post on the
Butler County Dog Warden’s Facebook page, Humane Society officers picked up the pups on Thursday in Hamilton.
Images taken of the animals after their rescue show a tawny boxer and a black-and-white boxer. Both have white fur on their faces, suggesting that they are older dogs.
A full-body snapshot of the light-brown pooch shows her with virtually every single bone in her skeleton visible through her fur.
She was taken to the home of the deputy dog warden to receive special treatment and care.
According to the Facebook post, the severely emaciated animal is in need of timed feeding and monitoring.
‘These dogs are safe at the Humane Society and are receiving medical treatment, but they have a long way to go,’ the warden’s post read.
