A Californian woman is likely to be prosecuted after she was seen abandoning a litter of newborn terrier mix pups outside an auto parts store.
According to FOX 59, the incident which was caught on CCTV camera in Coachella, has caused widespread outrage online with many labeling the woman’s actions as despicable and shameful.
It is believed the pups which were just three days old, were discovered by a worker at the store who immediately called animal services.
Although the woman has yet to be prosecuted, Riverside County Sheriff’s Office say they are working to establish a case against her.
It is believed that the pups who are likely to be rehomed are currently being cared for by the Riverside County Animal Services.
