Cruel Scots couple left elderly bald dog to starve and neglected two cats
A cruel Scots couple have been banned from owning animals for a decade after they subjected a dog and two cats to extreme neglect.
Two cats, Ruff and Tumble, both 7, were also found at the property and had painful skin, hair loss and serious health conditions. Scottish SPCA inspector, Karen Cooper, said: "On arrival we found a 17-year-old male border collie cross dog, Ben, who had almost no hair and whose spine and ribs were clearly showing. Two cats, both aged seven years old and named Ruff and Tumble, were also at the property. The males were both suffering from sore and irritated skin and had significant hair loss.
“Ben was found to be severely emaciated with a heavy flea infestation. The resulting itching had caused multiple lesions throughout his skin and an open wound on his left hind leg, through which the femur could be seen. He also had extremely overgrown nails, with some having grown into his pads.
