An English Bulldog named Reba was cruelly taped inside of a sealed plastic bin and abandoned to die in the Las Vegas heat, as reported by KLAS News.
After her cries were heard by passersby, a local animal rescue group stepped in and rushed the dog to a veterinary hospital.
On the way, Reba suffered seizures, vomited, and struggled to breathe or move.
Once at the hospital, the medical team began treating Reba for heat stroke, dehydration, and respiratory distress.
Fluid had filled Reba's lungs and she was barely able to breathe on her own.
She needed oxygen, plasma infusions, IV fluids and round-the-clock care as she clung to life, according to Dr. Keith Mihansky, emergency veterinarian and Interim Director at Veterinary Medical Group in Henderson, Nevada.
Despite Reba's resilience and Veterinary Medical Group's best efforts to save the sweet English Bulldog, Reba sadly passed away from cardiac arrest.
The heat stroke and shock led to a blood clotting condition that resulted in Reba's death.
Las Vegas Metropolitan Police are asking anyone with any information about the incident to contact the LVMPD Animal Cruelty Detail by phone at 702-828-2907.
To remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers by phone at 702-385-5555.
