A dog that was left
A dog that was left on a second-story apartment balcony while its owner was out of town was rescued Tuesday by the Houston SPCA, Precinct 1 deputies and the Ponderosa Fire Department.
According to the Houston SPCA, someone reported that the dog needed help after seeing it suffering from the heat on an apartment balcony on Cypress Station Drive near Cypress Trace Road.
Chief Animal Cruelty Investigator Jay Chase said the dog was on the balcony without water for several hours before neighbors called for help.
"It was past cutting it close," Chase said.
When a rescue team arrived, the dog was unresponsive and wasn't moving.
"When they got on the patio, it looked like the dog had expired. As they investigated, the dog lifted its head and gasped and they realized it was alive," Chase said.
“We noticed the dog took in a breath, so we moved quickly to get him off the balcony,” Sgt. Joseph Soto with Harris County Constable Precinct 1 said. “Reporting cruelty made all the difference in getting him the help he desperately needed."
Thanks to neighbors and rescuers, the dog is expected to survive.
