The Netcare Group says an employee who was this week accused of dumping one of her dogs on the side of the road, had infact been nursing her distressed dog, and she will now take legal action against the person who falsely accused her.

“Unfortunately I was on the opposite side of the busy road with my car open and when I turned around to follow her she was out of sight“Let”s make this lady famous for dumping a dog next to the road,” she wrote, tagging the Netcare Unitas Hospital as well as the SPCA.

Netcare’s human resources and transformation director, Dr Nceba Ndzwayiba, said the staffer co-operated with their investigation and they had since concluded that the complainant made “incorrect assumptions about the situation”.“Netcare has had sight the formal letter provided by the SPCA upon conclusion of their investigation.

“It also states that both dogs appeared to be healthy and had access to food, water and shelter,” said Ndzwayiba. “She stated that on this particular occasion the dog began whining, so she stopped the car to attend to it. It seems the passer-by then pulled over and began to interfere, which our colleague took umbrage to, and she put her pet back in the car and drove home.
