PETA recently pitched in $2,500 to boost the local SPCA’s reward for information leading to an arrest in the case of Reese, the dog dragged behind a pickup truck earlier this month.

The Cumberland County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals offered $1,000 for information and PETA, or People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, just increased the total to $3,500.

Reese, a mixed chocolate-brown dog, was seen being dragged behind a green pickup truck at 10 p.m. June 13 on South East Avenue near Elmer Road.

Reese suffered from road bruises, facial injuries, and severe damage to her front paw pads and nails, but authorities expect she will recover.

Anyone with information about this case is encouraged to contact the Cumberland County SPCA at (856) 691-1500.
