York Regional Police say they are searching for a suspect vehicle after a dog was left tied to a pole at an Ontario park.
Police said officers were called to a dog park near Lake Drive South and Robert Street in Georgina, Ont., for a reported animal complaint.
Investigators said they found what appears to be a cane corso breed of dog tied to a pole.
They said the dog did not appear to be in distress and had no visible injuries.
A surveillance video released by police shows a black pickup truck driving into frame. After the truck is put into park, a suspect is seen walking the dog on a leash to the other side, where it is tied to a pole, police said.
The suspect is then seen walking back to the truck with the dog still in the same spot where it was left. The video shows the suspect getting back into the vehicle and driving away.
