PETALING JAYA: A pair of dogs left behind during the gas pipeline blast in Putra Heights have been rescued by a voluntary fire brigade, who are now pleading for their owners to come forward.
Ken Foo, who leads the Seers voluntary fire brigade, said his team found the canines while patrolling a housing area which had been evacuated.
“We saw the two dogs at two different homes. Both of them appeared to be in a daze and were unable to walk.
“They were also tied up. We freed them and rushed them to a veterinary clinic in Taman Megah,” he told FMT.
Once at the clinic, the dogs were found to be suffering from smoke inhalation. They were given oxygen and put on IV drips.
“The clinic was kind enough to carry out these treatments for free, along with a full blood check.”
In addition to the dogs, three rabbits and a guinea pig were also rescued. Unlike the dogs, these animals have since been reclaimed by their owners, he said.
“We would like to urge owners of these dogs to contact us to reunite with their dogs,” he said.
Anyone with information or looking to reclaim the pets can reach the Seers brigade at 012-6088871.
