Pictures of Harley, latest cruelty case.

Read today's front page article on Harley at yumasun.com



Harley is a two year old male terrier/spaniel mix who was found on Figueroa Ave as a stray on 5/19/09. His hair was so severely matted that lumps of hair covering his body felt like stones. It was not until 5/27/09 that a groomer at The Dog Spa noticed a knife blade stuck into Harley's neck. Judging by the depth of the wound, it is highly unlikely this was an accidental injury. Instead, it appears to be very deliberate as the knife blade was broken off in Harley's neck. Fortunately, the blade missed all of the major veins, arteries and even trachea and esophagus. Harley is being treated with antibiotics and is up for adoption. This incident is being treated as a cruelty case; unfortunately, HSOY has no details since Harley was a stray. Anyone with information about Harley or the stabbing should call Animal Control at (928)782-1621, ext. 106.
