An XL Bully was heartlessly left to die in a filthy faeces-strewn flat. Police found Cali, a female tan and white XL bully, lying dead in the living room of a flat in Waterdale Crescent, St Helens, on June 15 last year. Cali, who was forced to stay inside a garden shed for hours at a time, was uncovered extremely thin and suffering from canine parvovirus, a highly contagious viral disease, which had not been treated by a vet.
According to the RSPCA inspector who entered the property, the flat was filthy and littered with rubbish. And, in the living room, there was a pungent overpowering smell of urine, faeces and decomposition - with no sign of food or water, the ECHO reports.
