The dog was discovered one day after she and her puppies were stolen from the yard of a home on the 5100 block of North Marvine Street, NBC10 reports.
Previous reports indicated the dog was found hanging from the front porch of the same home. But the Pennsylvania SPCA says the dog was found hanging from a neighbor's fence.
The puppies remain missing and police do not have a suspect, according to 6ABC. Anyone with information can contact the Philadelphia SPCA's cruelty hotline at 866-601-SPCA.
