These two fluffy pups nearly ended up being thrown out with the bins after being dumped by their owners.

The ten-week-old Chihuahua-cross puppies were left in a cardboard box next to rubbish in Hardwicke on Wednesday.

Staff at Teckels Animal Sanctuaries in Whitminster have been left horrified.

Manager Joan Barrett said: "The binmen could have easily picked them up and it is just horrible to think what could have happened."

The puppies have now been named Bonnie and Harry. If you would like to adopt them call 01452 740 300.

    “Awwww - I bet these lil pups are unwanted Xmas presents - owners or the kiddies got bored of them and decided to bin them . .

    Hope these lovely lil pups are rehoused with a loving caring family.”

    “Whoever did this should be hung, drawn and quartered. We can hope they get at least a nasty cancer.”

    “As an compassionate animal lover and mummy of three small dogs,I am horrified to learn of this cruel act by 'the lowest of the low' .To think these small puppies were left cold and at risk sickens me.I hope these puppies find safe and loving forever homes and the person/people involved in this animal cruelty case get caught.”
