The RSPCA are investigating after three puppies were found abandoned in a pile of rubbish near the side of the road.
A member of the public found them by the side of the B4696 between Royal Wotton Bassett and South Cerney on 21 December.
They were taken to the RSPCA Oak & Furrows Wildlife Centre, before being transferred into the care of the team at the RSPCA's Cheltenham and East Gloucestershire branch.
The team have now named them Mary, Holly and Rudey.
RSPCA Animal Rescue Officer Freya Lamb is now investigating how the puppies, came to be abandoned.
She says, “These poor puppies are all sadly underweight and suffering with ear mites. One of the dogs also has cherry eye which needs veterinary treatment. They are very nervous and scared and don't want to go near anyone.”
