COLERAIN TOWNSHIP, Ohio (FOX19) - A Rumpke worker received the SPCA’s Good Pet Samaritan Award after he rescued a puppy left out for trash pickup.
Aaron Kinsel found the female boxer, now named Tipper, stuffed in a backpack, and thrown out by her previous owner as he was making his rounds in late January.
Kinsel took Tipper to the vet, who found two broken bones in one of her legs. Tipper was also suffering from dehydration.
