A photo of a 3-year-old pit bull left on a couch in Phoenix after owners moved away has caught the attention of pet lovers across the Valley.
A neighbor found the dog after noticing a moving van at the presumed home of the dog Wednesday. She noticed the dog Thursday.
The dog was reportedly taken to the Arizona Humane Society, and Maricopa County Animal Control (who first picked up the dog) has said they’ve “been swamped” with calls from people who want to help the dog.
The photo itself has been shared over 1,000 times on Facebook and the owner(s) could face animal cruelty charges.
