He had locked the dog in the trunk of the car , parked it and covered it with a tarp.

But luckily the puppy's complaints were heard by the carabinieri who saved the animal and denounced the owner .

The Italian association for the defense of animals and the environment-Italiambiente tells it.

"The most disconcerting thing about this story - explains Aidaa -, which happened in the province of Pisa, in the town of San Miniato Basso, is the motivation adopted by the young author of this shameful gesture that could cost the dog his life".

The man, apparently, claimed to have closed the puppy in the trunk "because it whined and bothered him".

"First of all - the association announced - today we will send to the prosecutor a complaint for the mistreatment of animals against this character who, with his nefarious and criminal behavior, has endangered the life of the puppy that remained closed in the trunk of his car for a whole day . But above all - write the animal rights activists - we ask that the puppy now entrusted to an association and locked up for the moment in a kennel is no longer returned to this man who in the future must not be allowed to own any animal . If you need us as Aidaa we are ready to do our part to remove the puppy from the kennel and entrust it to another family, obviously without wanting to bully anyone, least of all the volunteers of the association that we are sure with love are now taking care of that wonderful little beast ".
