Two young puppies that were found in a litter of five in a bag on the New Ross Bypass in County Wexford have died after efforts to save them.
Local animal welfare charity Wexford Society Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (WSPCA) shared the harrowing update online after the discovery was made.
Their foster home, foster mother and local veterinary hospital tried to save the young litter as they were too young to be away from their mother when found.
Sharing the devastating news on their social media, WSCPA urged members of the public to come forward to spay their dogs in an effort to reduce the unnecessary loss of life.
They wrote: "Unfortunately two of the little puppies found in the bag on the New Ross Bypass have died, every effort was made by Foster mother and veterinary hospital to help them but they were way too young to be away from their mother."
