Willie, a poodle mix, was found abandoned on Route 495 in Lawrence on May 19 and taken to the MSPCA. Despite receiving medical treatment for severe dehydration and pneumonia, his health deteriorated and he was humanely euthanized. The MSPCA is seeking information about his previous owner, emphasizing the need for community assistance in understanding his neglect. The organization expressed sadness over Willie's fate but is grateful he experienced care and love in his final days.
"Willie was matted and emaciated when he was brought into the adoption center," MSPCA Executive Director Chris Schindler said in the statement. "Angell veterinarians found him to be emaciated and extremely dehydrated."
"We're very sad about Willie's outcome, but the team at Angell did everything possible to help him recover," the spokesperson wrote. "We take solace in knowing that he spent his last days around people fighting hard for him and showing him love."
