Good Samaritans Rescue Abandoned Dog In Sealed Trash Bag

FONTANA (CBSLA.com) — Two good Samaritans in Fontana are being credited with saving the life of an abandoned dog.

The dog now named Gladys was found by a woman on her morning walk on Valley Boulevard and Catawba Avenue.

The woman heard whimpering sounds from an open field and found the dog, which had been tied up in a sealed, black trash bag.

A second good Samaritan grabbed a blanket and comforted Gladys until animal-control officers arrived.

Gladys had bite marks and skin rashes.

She is said to be recovering at Sunshine Haven Animal Rescue and is expected to be ready for adoption soon.
