A corgi allegedly left under the hot sun for more than an hour at a Seletar condominium has sparked concern among netizens over <\/strong>its welfare and the potential risks of prolonged exposure to sun.<\/p>\n In a Facebook video reposted on Sunday (Aug 30), a woman can be seen forcefully pulling a dog that appears restless and reluctant to move.<\/p>\n In a separate video, the corgi can also be seen slowly dragging itself along under the sun.\u00a0<\/p>\n According to the witness who shared the footage, <\/strong>the incident allegedly took place at Nim Gardens, a condominium in Seletar.<\/p>\n The incident has since drawn reactions from netizens online, with some expressing concern over the dog’s apparent discomfort.\u00a0<\/p>\n “Poor dog could be in pain and refuse to walk. It’s why people can cause immense suffering to animals who cannot speak and humans do not even know how to see the animals’ body language,” said one user.<\/p>\n Another added: “Dragging the corgi till it is strangling it.”<\/p>\n Responding to queries from AsiaOne, the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) said it was first alerted to the incident on Aug 18.\u00a0<\/p>\n SPCA added that a subsequent home visit was attempted on Aug 20, but there was no response.<\/p>\n An officer from the <\/strong>to condo management staff later informed SPCA inspectors that the Animal and Veterinary Service (AVS) and National Parks Board (NParks) had attended to the case.<\/p>\n On Aug 24, SPCA said it received a second report expressing concern after the dog was allegedly seen again under the hot sun for an hour.<\/p>\n “Given the rising temperatures and risk of heatstroke, our inspectors made an urgent visit on Aug 25 to check that the dog was safe if let outdoors,” said SPCA.\u00a0<\/p>\n Upon arrival, the SPCA said its inspectors found the dog alone under direct sunlight and panting.\u00a0<\/p>\n They then approached a domestic helper who was sitting nearby in the shade to gather more information and provide advice on dog welfare.<\/p>\n SPCA said its inspectors also helped carry the dog to a sheltered area and advised the helper to provide water for it to cool down, adding that its findings had been conveyed to the authorities to support their ongoing investigations.<\/p>\n AsiaOne has reached out to NParks, AVS for comment.\u00a0<\/p>\n [[nid:735400]]<\/p>\n xingying.koh@asiaone.com<\/p>\n<\/div>\n A corgi allegedly left under the hot sun for more than an hour at a Seletar condominium has sparked concern among netizens over its welfare…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":81130,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2611],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-81129","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-buzz-headlines","wpcat-2611-id"],"brizy_media":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/81129","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=81129"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/81129\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/81130"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=81129"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=81129"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=81129"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Corgi spotted under hot sun despite earlier report: SPCA<\/h2>\n
