Emaciated dog found in locked cage in Wichita dumpster 

-

Authorities say an emaciated dog has been rescued after it was found in a locked kennel that was thrown in an apartment dumpster in Wichita.

Lt. Brian Sigman, the Wichita Animal Control commander, said surveillance video obtained Thursday shows two suspects putting the male pit bull mix in the dumpster around 7:15 p.m. Wednesday. 


A woman, taking out her own trash found the dog, and took it to an emergency veterinarian for treatment. 

Investigators are following up on information gleaned from the video. 

The dog weighs just over 20 lbs., less than half the amount a dog of his size should weigh.
