Man Dumps His Dog Near Dunkin’ Donuts With A Note Stuck To Her Collar That Will Break Your Heart

One heartless New Mexico man doesn’t deserve a single bit of ‘happy’ for 2018. Recently, Santa Fe police issued a statement, seeking information on a person who is suspected of abandoning a dog at the Dunkin’ Donuts on Cerrillos Road. And even though many owners who leave their pets behind avoid justice, the authorities hope that with the help from the public this case can be different.

Surveillance footage shows that the man drove up in a dark-colored Chevy van. “The male opened his door and let the dog out of the vehicle with the note attached to its neck,” Santa Fe police wrote. “The man then proceeded to go into Dunkin’ Donuts and order a cup of coffee. The dog followed the man from the vehicle to the front door of the business but was ignored by the man.”

He then drove away, leaving the pup alone. “I’m free,” the note read. “I’m having babies.” While the police are searching for any information that could lead to the suspect, the dog is under the care of Santa Fe Animal Shelter and Humane Society. “She is social and loves people,” they told The Dodo. “We still do not know if she is pregnant — too early to tell. [But] the safety of the dog was not the person’s main concern.”

Everyone who can provide any information about the individual who dumped her, please contact Santa Fe animal control at 505-955-2708, or call anonymously via Crime Stoppers, at 505-955-5050.

    How about not judging him or an entire race/breed based on the actions of some...snap judgments are what's wrong with the world

    No one deserves pain...Also do you know why he did, do you know the back story..no so how about not wishing curses on people you don't know or understand...God, why does humanity insist on being better than one another

    I am so thankful of american people that care so much about pour animals. If this story is bad, you should see what is going on in Romania, I believe every night people abandon dogs to where I live, very often we find new dogs in the morning, lost and confused. Wish with all my heart that somebody will do something about this situation.

    ...That man is heartless, we do not know the reason yet for his abandonment of the dog but I hope it's not petty. He could've left her in a shelter instead of leaving her in a public place. I am glad Dunkin Donuts took her to a shelter. Here's to hoping 2018 will find her a new loving family and will be happy with them.

    A dog is a lifelong commitment. Even if it's a legit reason like, having to move to a retirement home where the dog is not welcome etc, he could still look for a new home for the dog or take her to a shelter. Just glad he left her in an busy-public area instead of the forest or whatever...

    I hate people who abandon pets like this. If you really can't do it anymore. At least bring them to a good shelter! In stead of being like this and abandon an animal on the streets. That is so sad. They love you like only pet's can. And this is what they get in return? That saddens me so much..

    I just can't with people like this. I'm just glad that she's safe and sound and hopefully will find a loving home soon. All of our pets are rescue pets and it's like they know, cause they seem to make the absolute best pets. :)

    One of my parents dogs was dumped on the road outside their house. :(. But Bonnie has a good life, she's fully vetted now and spayed, along with the other dog Prissy. They're both spoiled and over-fed, thank goodness!

    I'm afraid he will just go out and get another dog. He sees them as property not living creatures.

    And you know that how? Oh did you meet him, do you know his story? I didn't think so so stop thinking your better than him because judging people based on almost no info is worse than what he did
