[Music] the Humane Society of Tampa Bay wants to know who tossed three puppies from a car leaving them for dead on a Tampa Street two of them survived but it's only thanks to a neighbor who came to their rescue Fox 13's Kylie Jones spoke to that neighbor who actually found the puppies Kylie what did she tell you well Ally luckily she heard the screeching of the car and then the Yelps coming from those puppies she describes what she calls the heartbreaking scene right outside her door this little
brother and sister are recovering and waiting for a new home but two nights ago they were fighting for their lives if we didn't hear it we probably would not have known that it happened Kyla fison says she and her family were watching TV when they heard a commotion outside all of a sudden we hear like the screeching sound like tires of a car just screeching and then we hear like yelping they ran outside and we're seeing red lights just Scurry away down the street and and we're like okay what's
going on fison says they found three 8-week old puppies dumped near a ditch on a road off be Avenue she says two puppies were off in the brush but one was lying in the road as we get closer we notice that on its abdomen it has a tire mark on it the Humane Society of Tampa Bay says the puppy was hit by a car and killed after all three were tossed out the window his siblings Luke and Leia were skewed across the state and the country shelters are full resources are down shelters are full people unf
ortunately are having a hard time caring for their animals despite offering things like free food and lowcost Medical Care the humane society says they're seeing more and more dogs being dumped a lot of times people either aren't caught or when they are it is a minimal fine or something like that they absolutely need to be held a l lot more accountable the Humane Society is going as far as to offer a reward to help figure out who's responsible in this case and with the help of actor and former W
WE star Dave Batista that reward is now $7500 it's nice when anyone in our community you decides to be the voice for the animals but especially someone like Dave Batista I just hope that Justice a serve and I know a lot of you are probably wondering how those puppies are doing Leia does have a broken leg both of them do need a lot of medical care so they'll have to stay here at the Humane Society while they get treated and while they recover but will eventually be available for adoption now if y

There should be serious jailtime for abusing animals

@adamhuffman3354

What is wrong with people? It’s amazing to me that people can do that. No conscious, no heart and no soul.

@lichiemoo8639

Animal abuse in the U.S. is getting worse by the day. When are we going to actually hold people accountable!!!???

@apara2005

I wonder where the mom is. If the person treated her sweet puppies like this, imagine what they are doing to her.

@beatpirate8

that dog was born then gruesomely murdered. awful. hardly lived. im so sorry you suffered. to the couple who paid attention and called for help , thank you so much!

@kingti85

I've literally never seen any of Dave Bautista's work but I've seen him get involved in cases like this before. He must have a kind soul and I have a lot of love and respect for him 🙏❤

@briannasteele6074

If people are treating innocent animals like this, then how are they treating our children? We all need to step up and take action against evil. This is truly against good and evil.

@donnaengel6413

Omg! This makes my blood boil… Bless the people who took the puppies for medical care. ❤️

@21blackjack10

God bless this lady for saving these babies.

@tinytrees-nv4kg

People truly suck

@_Creativestar55

Some people are such assholes. If I was allowed to have more dogs, I would've adopted both of them.

@zaad5273

Absolutely beautiful puppies. I hope they find the scumbag who did this. Good on Bautista for upping the reward. This is one of the reasons he's one of my favorite celebs. He's fantastic at his job and genuinely has a huge heart.

@username-tv6uw

Dave i think you just adopted 2 puppies by internet animal law

@user-dz8tc9rt2i

Please if possible don't separate the two they should be together they are all they have I pray that whoever is able to adopt them can take both of them if not I pray that they go to the best homes that they can

@signsofplay

I hope they both get adopted together.

@tshaffer9681

Beautiful little puppies. I'm so sorry about their sibling. God Bless all who helped and are helping them and all the animals.

@hayleys1110

The reward would be watching Bautista knock em around in the ring. Then stone cold Steve Austin comes out and hands him a chair 😂

@laviniahassrison3657

This is absolutely heartbreaking , what sweet beautiful puppies

@mainecoonmomma9494

This breaks my heart. They could have tried to list them on FB for free before just dumping them like this
