January 29, 2014 - Huntington, NY - The Nassau County SPCA will be holding a press conference on Thursday, January 30th at 11:30am at My Pets Vet located at 448 West Jericho Turnpike, Huntington, NY. Detective Robert Sowers, a spokesman for the Nassau County SPCA, says "We are asking the public and animal lovers to help us in our efforts to raise funds for the needed surgeries and care that this poor puppy faces. More importantly, for this sweet little girl who has been named "Miss Harper" we have to find a loving home." She has been receiving wonderful care by Dr. Bridget Brooke and her staff since the Nassau County SPCA brought her to My Pets Vet in September.
Det. Sowers adds "We have been working with the New York State Attorney General's Office and there is an ongoing criminal investigation into who is responsible for this puppy's condition."
