One of the doodle puppies that the Whatcom Humane Society was nonetheless on the lookout for was killed by a automotive earlier this week on the Guide Meridian close to Smith Road.
This was doubtless one of many “dumped dogs” which have been discovered within the space over the previous few weeks, Laura Clark humane society informed The Bellingham Herald in an e mail.
A doodle puppy is a cross between a poodle and one other breed.
Over 15 puppies between the ages of 5 months and 4 years have been present in Whatcom County during the last three weeks. They have been taken care of on the Whatcom Humane Society, and have been in a poor situation with matted fur and scars.
Recently, among the “more social” puppies have been adopted out to households, whereas employees and volunteers are persevering with their work with the remaining dogs, Clark mentioned.
There are some credible leads relating to the individual or individuals chargeable for dumping the dogs, probably by a breeder, authorities have mentioned.
