Reports came after the discovery was made by residents in the Ravenswood area last Thursday. After Ipswich Borough Council collected the dog the day after, the RSPCA conducted investigations into the matter. The dog was medium sized and black and white which was found by a footpath. An RSPCA spokesperson said: “We were made aware of the body of a dead dog being found near Carved Bench, Ipswich, on Monday (January 26) which must have been distressing for the finder." Cllr Muhith revealed that Ipswich Borough Council collected the remains of the dog after it was reported to them and the RSPCA attended to examine and scan the body.
