OK all - I have a best friend who is in a very bad emotional state as she feels a dog isn't being looked after properly (therefore being mis-treated) by a close friend of hers.
He is a pug doggy and has been suffering with his front right leg where his ankle is so weak it makes his paw face backwards and he is only 10 months old. The vet advised to have surgery and x-rays but the girl refused to do this for financial reasons. My friend has even offered her the money for the vets bill. The person in question has declined her offer and is carrying on her expensive social lifestyle having lots of fun without a care in the world for getting the dog the care he needs to make him more comfortable and in good health. The girl has a nice home but is just ignoring his health issues and even trying for a baby - can't really understand how she can afford this when she won't even look after her dog (supposedly her current baby!) Apparantly she is already trying to seek funds from the RSPCA for the op for the dog even though she has available funds for this and is paying insurance (god knows why looking at this situation)!!
Is this the kind of situation that should be reported to the RSPCA as my friend is tearing her hair out and feels that the dog's health is extremely low on her priorities and in danger?!
Any advice would be much appreciated!!!
