Bystanders intervene, demand man release puppy

Thankfully, after repeated pleas from the crowd, the man finally relented. Bystanders then stepped in to check on the injured pup’s condition.
Puppy suffers bloody injuries, now in recovery
The puppy, believed to be around four months old, eventually managed to stand on its own, though its legs were visibly raw and bloodied, likely from scraping against the rough road surface.

According to Sin Chew Daily, the man admitted that the puppy was his, but claimed he “no longer wanted it”.
The puppy was subsequently sent to a veterinarian. It’s expected to take at least a week to fully recover from its injuries.
