This is one of the many reasons why we should be more conscientious about littering.
A good Samaritan in Dallas, TX called animal services after he found Shepherd mix, “Joshua”, protecting his emaciated companion, “Java”, who had a coffee can stuck around her neck.
Joshua is currently being held at a Dallas Animal Services facility, where employees described him to be a sweet, friendly canine and continue to search for possible foster homes.
Java is expected to make a full recovery.
