It was very late, around 10.30pm, cold, and the young man was surprised to see someone just sitting on a bench.
The teenager approached the bench and couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw what was there. There was an unfortunate German shepherd tied to the bench in the cold.
The teenager didn’t know how long the dog had been there, but it was clear that the puppy had been abandoned. The teenager called the police, who arrived and took the shivering animal away.
Fortunately, a place was quickly found at a local animal shelter where the puppy would be cared for until an owner could be found or the dog could be put up for adoption.
The shelter found out that the rescued German shepherd was called Pedro and was three years old.
Who brought Pedro to Germany and what happened to him? Shelter staff hope to answer these questions as they continue to investigate Pedro’s past.
