SEVEN one-week-old puppies were dumped in bushland in WA’s South West and only two survived.

A person walking their own dogs found the puppies scattered across a section of track near Balingup on Good Friday.

Five were dead, with injuries consistent with being preyed upon by birds and other bush predators, while two others were taken to Bridgetown Boarding Kennels and are now in the care of RSPCA WA.
