[NBC2|PHOTO] A reward has been doubled to $10,000 for information that will lead to an arrest of the person who tightly wrapped an elastic hairband around a puppy’s snout, according to Houston SPCA.

The $5,000 reward increased thanks to an anonymous donor who wanted to help solve this case, according to a release.

The 8-week-old Shepherd mix puppy was found in a north Houston parking lot near the North Freeway and West Road by a Good Samaritan on Oct. 23, Houston SPCA stated.

The puppy, now named Sharky, suffered from severe swelling and deep laceration to the bone from the tied elastic band, according to a release.

Sharky had undergone a three-hour surgery on Oct. 25. The veterinary staff focused on pain management including hydrotherapy, antibiotics and pain medication. [FULLSTORY]
