Disabled puppy left on landfill

The abandoned puppy was named Bambi because of her special little walk
A disabled 12-week-old puppy found abandoned at a landfill site in Sussex has been taken in by an animal warden and needs a new home.

Lewes District Council´s Tracey Hills, who rescued her from the Newhaven site, said it was immediately clear there was something wrong because of her walk.

She said the puppy was thought to have cerebella-hypoplasia, which causes jerky and unco-ordinated movement.

The Jack Russell cross was named Bambi because of her "special little walk".

Ms Hills said: "Her disability won´t stop her from living a normal happy life that she deserves. She just needs special considerations and commitment.

"She is just like any other normal puppy, and just wants to play and have lots of cuddles."
