Emaciated huskies who spent ‘years on a tether’ surrendered to B.C. SPCA

The B.C. SPCA is fundraising to help provide care to two huskies, surrendered to the organization after living most of their lives on a chain with limited access to food.

The organization appealed for support Tuesday, describing the conditions the two dogs had been living in.

“For Zara and Zuke, the world was reduced to a worn patch of dirt at the end of a heavy chain. Day after day, they paced in tight circles, their paws tracing the same path. With limited food available, they grew thin and beneath their thick coats, their once-proud frames showed every rib and hip bone,” a post on the charity’s website said.
