Few things enrage us more than the abandonment and abuse of defenseless animals.

According to a sickening report over the weekend, a Sioux Falls animal rescue center is asking for the public's help in finding the person or persons responsible for putting 3 newborn puppies in a dumpster.

The puppies have been named Bo, Birdie, and Brody and are only 3 weeks old. They are being bottle-fed but they just opened their eyes and have been given a pretty good chance of survival.

Almost Home Canine Rescue also set up a "wish list" for those looking to donate to the care of these beautiful pups. At the time of this writing, nearly $700 has been donated so far.

The puppies were discovered in a dumpster near Kiwanis earlier this week.

Internet, do your thing, and help. These 3 little fighters deserve love.

Note: If you find yourself unable to care for a new litter of pets, please do the right thing and bring them to a local shelter and give them a chance to find a loving home.
