LSO Deputies Find Puppy Abandoned On County Road

By Tom Stanton Feb 3, 2023 | 4:00 PM

The Lancaster County Sheriff’s Department is asking for the public’s help in figuring out who abandoned a puppy along a road north of Lincoln on Thursday.

Deputies were notified around 11:30 a.m. and found the dog in a ditch at N. 14th Street and McKelvie.  “On a happy note the puppy was brought to the office to warm up and make new friends,” the sheriff’s department said in a Facebook post.

The puppy will then be sent over to the Capital Humane Society.   The sheriff’s department says whoever is responsible will be cited for littering as well as animal abandonment, which is a class 1 misdemeanor.
