A dog was found in an extremely poor condition wandering around a farm during the recent heatwave.
The female bulldog cross, aged around five and described as emaciated, was found wandering by a farm in Ayrshire on Friday, June 26, before being taken to Vets Now in Kilmarnock.
The Scottish SPCA collected the dog and transported her to its Glasgow Animal Rescue and Rehoming Centre to receive treatment and care.

A Scottish SPCA inspector said: "The dog is in a very poor state and she is very skinny.
"We would like to know how a young dog with no obvious underlying conditions could look like this."
Though the dog was microchipped, the details were outdated.
The Scottish SPCA is appealing for information and urging anyone who might know the dog's background to contact its Animal Helpline on 03000 999 999.
