The female emaciated dog, aged around five, is now being looked after by the Scottish SPCA.
A member of the public discovered the medium bulldog crossbreed wandering near to a farm in Ayrshire before handing her in to Vets Now in Kilmarnock on Friday 26 June.
The emaciated dog was in a poor state so was collected by a Scottish SPCA Inspector and taken to the charity’s Glasgow Animal Rescue and Rehoming centre to receive treatment and care.
Her microchip details are out of date so the organisation is now appealing for more information to find out where she came from so they can try speak to her owner.
A Scottish SPCA Inspector said: “The dog is in a very poor state and she is very skinny. We would like to know how a young dog with no obvious underlying conditions could look like this.”
If you have any information about this or think that you can help, please get in touch with the Scottish SPCA Animal Helpline on 03000 999 999.
