"If you are her owner and you abandoned her where you did as you can’t face/afford the inevitable then please contact us anonymously, let us know her name and some of her favourite things so we can spoil her.

"Nothing would make us happier than to find a genuine loving owner if she has wandered off and got lost.

"This sweet, precious girl isn’t suffering but showing signs of dementia, is weak and wobbly on her back legs, possibly deaf and poor eyesight.

"She is currently snuggled up warm and will be under 24 hour observation.

"Chipped as ‘Roxy’, not sure if this is an old name as she was chipped many years ago. Contact numbers are incorrect, we will continue to search."
