POLICE are in a race against time to find the owners of a healthy German Shepherd who will be put to sleep on Thursday unless they succeed.
The friendly dog is now on death row after he was found wondering round the yard of Bring Logistics in Stallingborough, hungry and frightened, on Thursday morning.
In a distressed state, the dog bit a man when staff tried to corner and catch the dog – although later it became friendly when a worker took the dog home before it could be taken to the Blue Cross.
However, unless the dog's owner can be found by Thursday, March 14 – seven days from when it was found – it will be put down, despite being perfectly healthy.
If you know who may own the dog, please contact Humberside Police and ask to speak to Sandra Brack at Immingham Police Station.
The Grimsby Telegraph is hoping to get a picture of the animal tomorrow.
