A fisherman in Illinois says that he found a caged dog floating in Kaufman Lake. As reported by WKRG News, amazingly, the dog was still alive.
The fisherman’s friend, Amanda Carin, posted images of the dog to social media, writing:

Message from finder-“People are so sick.
A friend just found this puppy in a cage in Kaufmann lake. She is at the U of I Vet clinic doing OK.

The pup is still in the care of U of I Veterinary and is being treated for hypothermia and wounds – she is expected to make a full recovery. Currently, there is no information available about who the dog’s owner may be.
