Colonial Heights, Virginia – A Virginia animal control agency is seeking answers after the discovery of three badly neglected puppies who were abandoned by the Temple Avenue bridge coming into Colonial Heights from Prince George.
The Colonial Heights Animal Control said:
These 3 puppies were found abandoned in DEPLORABLE conditions. Their coats were caked with feces and urine, and they smelled horribly. They clearly had been neglected for a long time. Even after three baths, they are still oily and filthy… 💔
Adding:
We are asking the community’s help to identify where these puppies came from and who is responsible.
Location Found: Temple Avenue bridge coming into Colonial Heights from Prince George
Time Found: Around 1:26 AM (overnight Saturday night, Easter Sunday morning)
The puppies were reportedly found loose, huddled together on the side of the road and placed in a tote to keep them safe until officers could arrive.These puppies appear to be about 3–4 months old, possibly a Lab/Hound mix.
They are extremely shy and fearful, acting like they’ve had little to no human interaction—even touching grass seemed unfamiliar to them.
If anyone has seen anyone posting puppies that look like these, or recently taken in a similar puppy, or heard anything or know anything at all, PLEASE reach out immediately to the animal control agency.

These poor babies… So cruel! I hope they find who did this and I hope they stick their bleeping asses in jail for good!! they don’t deserve freedom. There’s no reason to do this. There’s always a better choice… but this dirt bike mentality doesn’t care!
So cruel sick in jail
Much brighter days are ahead for those pups. Hopefully they know nothing but love going forward. Let’s hope the creep who is responsible is identified.
Someone will know about these babies, do the right thing and fond the bastards and take the mother off them !!!! The deal with the scum !
