Yapping Yorkshire Terrier Rescued By Garbageman

EDMONTON — An alert garbage man rescued an injured little Yorkshire terrier dog buried under trash at the bottom of a garbage can.

The Edmonton Humane Society says the little Yorkie, was encrusted in feces, urine and garbage when the city employee spotted her under several bags of trash on Wednesday.

The dog was found in north-central Edmonton and has no identification.

Humane Society official Diane Shannon says it’s remarkable the tiny dog was able to survive the ordeal.

She says she it was a cruel act and hopes animal protection officers can find the person responsible and charge them under the law.

The little dog was being assessed at the shelter and it’s believed may have an injury to her hind leg.
