A puppy was turned into a Missouri animal shelter with her fur shaved, revealing swastikas and expletives on her skin.
The 3-month-old pup was rescued by police and handed over to Rescue One, a non-profit animal rescue and veterinary clinic in Springfield, Missouri.
Rescue One said in a Facebook post on May 9 that the dog had swastikas drawn all over her body. She also had a message on her back that read, “Do not feed this (explicit) dog.”
“She goes to the bath to scrub away all this hate. Only love here,” the rescue wrote.

The marks on the dog, who the rescue named Leslie, are starting to fade thanks to the handful of baths she’s been given since her arrival.
“She’s met some canine friends, napped a lot and been helpful at the clinic. We named her Leslie and she’s perfect,” Rescue One wrote in a separate post on May 10.

Leslie has been placed in foster care, where she will remain until she is ready for adoption in about a month, according to Fox’s Live Now.
“We have already started reviewing adoption applications for her. She loves to play with the other dogs in her foster home and is a very friendly puppy,” the rescue agency told the outlet.
