Besides that, he also sustained chipped teeth and a bruised arm, his owner said.

He’s currently at the veterinarian’s clinic while they wait for his condition to stabilise.

Following that, he will undergo surgery on Saturday (6 May).

Owner appeals for info

His owner, who was informed about the incident on Thursday (4 May), is now appealing for info.

They’re looking for witnesses, or anyone who has video footage of the accident.

The purpose is to identify the driver of the car that allegedly hit the dog and left the scene.

Hopefully, the poor doggo makes a full recovery from his injuries soon, and those responsible are found.
