January 16 - A poodle left inside a van for 19 days has somehow managed to survive.

The van left at the Vermont Airport for nearly 3 weeks in a parking garage was only fingered for inspection after somebody reported a horrible smell coming from it.

Police believe the little poodle, who is recovering at an animal clinic, was without food and water for 19 days.

Pascal Bellon of Frelighsburg, Quebec, the owner of the van and the dog, says he did not know his dog was inside.

Besides losing half of its body weight, the little dog (http://www.dogflu.ca) is expected to survive.

I'm happy to hear the dog is going to live.

How did the owner not know their pet was in the van? I hope he is charged with animal cruelty. Even if the dog was left in the van "accidentally" the owner is responsible no matter what.

Wow.. how did that poor baby survive without water for so long? I agree, cruelty charges should be pressed. This is irresponsiblity by the owner.
