Concord Dog Found With Severe Burns Recovering After Surgeries

CONCORD, NC — A severely burned dog that was found in Cabarrus County last week is recovering after two surgeries.

Rescuers named the dog Ian. A Concord man found Ian with severe burns behind a tire shop last Wednesday and took him to the Cabarrus Animal Hospital.

Ian was then transferred to Animal Rescue Hospital in Savannah Georgia where he is being treated for severe chemical burns. After two surgeries, veterinarians say Ian is recovering but they are expected to remove one of his ears Wednesday.

Ian’s rehab will take several months and medical bills will be thousands of dollars.
