Chapel is warm, loved and comfortable — a far cry from how she was found on Tuesday.
According to Ohio’sSpeak for the Unspoken Rescue,the puppy, believed to be a double merle Australian shepherd puppy, “was tossed out like garbage.”
Two men in Sadieville, Kentucky, spotted Chapel stuck in a frigid creek, struggling to keep her head above water. The puppy was wrapped in two trash bags, one of which was filled with three large rocks. The men waded out into the partially frozen water, pulled the puppy from the deadly circumstances and brought her toScott County Animal Shelter in Georgetown, Kentucky, reportsWLKY.

Chapel is not currently up for adoption. Once Speak for the Unspoken Rescue staff has assessed the furry survivor’s needs, they will move forward on next steps.
