This 1-year-old dog was found in West Islip gas station Dumpster.




A PUPPY has been rescued from a commercial Dumpster on Long Island.


The small pooch was discovered in the trash at a gas station in West Islip about 1 a.m. on Tuesday, the Suffolk County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals said. Officials believe the dog, a 1-year-old Lhasa apso, chewed its way out of a plastic bag.


The female pup was wearing a pink leash and a pink collar. The dog was transported to a 24-hour animal hospital.


The animal was severely matted and dirty but otherwise in good health, the SPCA said. A gas station surveillance video taken nearly 24 hours before the dog was found shows a person carrying a plastic bag that appears to contain a box and placing it in the Dumpster.
