A mistreated puppy is doing better after a little TLC.

Animal control officers with the Terre Haute Police Department rescued the puppy over the weekend.  The female pit-bull is less than six months old.

She suffered a large gash on her head, burn marks on her back and the botched amputation of her tail.

If you know anything contact police.

They want to make sure that other animals do not suffer the same pain and injuries or worse
