MacMurchy, the vet and the previous owner aren’t sure what caused the chemical burns.

Jane MacMurchy said the owner did the right thing by surrendering the animals.

“This is not something that a lot of people choose to do. A lot of people choose to be proud and don’t accept help, but she did, “MacMurchy said.

No charges were filed in the case.

MacMurchy stressed that if your pet does get hurt, you need to get them treatment quickly before complications like these happen
