That's just wicked! What a rotten thing to do, he's been with that family for 10 years and now they've left him, he's probably quite confused.

Found it on the BBC website -

... and investigating the best way to post/share, we found this:

***Important Update. Having fully investigated the elderly dog left abandoned on Monday, we were able to get in contact with his owner, and all is not what it first seemed. We are now taking appropriate action based on the situation and circumstances.
We have also been in contact with members of the owners extended family, who know and love the dog. They had no knowledge of the owners plans and have asked to take the dog on so that it can live out the latter part of its life in a safe secure home, with people it knows. If home checks and the dogs reaction to them are positive, this is the kindest way forward for the dogs welfare.
We would like to thank everyone for their offers of help and a home for this old boy. ***

I didn't know that either!

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
