An eight-month-old Jack Russell named Larry, rescued by My Lovely Horse Rescue in Dublin after being found abandoned and struggling to breathe, tragically died from suspected poisoning shortly after being taken into care. Despite being microchipped, Larry’s registered owner callously admitted to giving him away “to a fella in the pub,” showing a shocking disregard for the dog’s welfare. The rescue center shared heartbreaking updates, revealing that the poison had severely damaged Larry’s liver and kidneys, forcing them to euthanize him within 24 hours of rescue.

The case has sparked widespread outrage on social media, with many condemning the cruelty and calling for stronger enforcement to protect animals. My Lovely Horse Rescue expressed deep sorrow over Larry’s death and urged the public to support their ongoing efforts to care for abused and neglected animals, highlighting the urgent need for accountability and improved animal welfare laws.
