Poor thing, let's hope that it has been taken in now and has a loving family.
Can't believe some people do this to animals, they have feelings, just like we do.
I'm sorry, but what exactly is being done to this animal?
It hasn't been tied to the road, it is sitting there by choice. It looks to me like it is intrigued by the river of water flowing down the gutter.
If the dog wanted to seek shelter, then i'm sure that it would, dogs aren't stupid...
