A puppy found strung out on drugs after police arrested his owner in California has received addiction treatment and is on the path to recovery, authorities said.

Officers arrested 40-year-old Joshua West in a motel room at the Key Inn & Suites in Tustin on the morning of March 22, CBS-Los Angeles reported over the weekend. Police apprehended West on a parole violation and an outstanding warrant, among other charges.

In a room with used needles, police reportedly found a terrier-mix named Bubba. The puppy seemed lethargic and high, Tustin Police detailed in a post on Facebook.

Officers transported Bubba to the Orange County Animal Care shelter, and the puppy was later found to have heroin, methamphetamine and nicotine in his system, police said.

5. I'm sure a rescue group will take good care of the puppy

and make sure the puppy is loved and cared for until they find him a permanent home.

As for the POS human, I hope his time in jail is full of pain and misery.
