I also saw this article which ends with:
Yet this tale does have a happy ending. The shelter has posted on Facebook that Zuzu will be taken in by a caring rescue group who will find her a home.
And with more and more people expressing an interest to adopt Zuzu, it looks like this is definitely one dog who will have her day, and deservedly so.
Here is the full article. it pretty much says the same thing but with a happier ending.

I can also understand situations where a dog needs to be rehomed. But I don't see that happening here. This dog was abandoned and if not for the publicity could have been euthanized. Absolutely reprehensible.
