Youky, a 10-year-old dog, was found in the forest of Maromme (Seine-Maritime), Thursday.

Tied to a tree, the animal had been abandoned, says BFM Normandie.

The same day, the mayor of the town wanted to express on Twitter his “anger” and his “shame” in the face of this act which he described as cowardly.

David Lamiray wrote that he wants to ensure that the perpetrators are punished.

May 2023 be a more human year.

These are his details that were recorded in the dog's chip and had not been modified after the transaction, a year and a half ago.

The SPA refuge being full, the man took Youky in charge while waiting for the follow-up to be given to this case.
