| My Story (Human Interpriter) I am a young tan and black nose /tail female pitbull. possible mix fully pregnant due any day now. covered in fleas. infested with worms obviously under fed and seldom loved. on 10/29/08 i followed my "owners" to the local gas station store on a major highway going straight through alabama hwy 231. i waited as patiently as i could for them to come back outside for me ,23 -30 minutes later i'm still waiting ,unattended and unleashed. i see something on the highway that smells very bad and looks even worse ....but i'm so hungry . i go to see what it is and begin eating a rotten roadkill carcus. instincts to survive overwhelm any common sense i may have! something really loud and fast screetches into me really hard, a blue car ran over my hind end back and pelvis area .they don't even slow down to ask me if i'm ok! i'm confused ,horrified, hurt! i run back towards where my "owners" should be ,i go unnoticed. a stranger in a van stops and grabs me up telling me it will be ok ,they will take me to the dr, they will help me! im in strange places hurting ,scared the dr tries to do the best he can to help me. he gives me pain meds and wormer ,i need xrays but it very clear my left rear leg is broken at the very least .they try to get me settled in and try to find out the whole story .where are my "owners".? all the sudden even more pain ..my pups are coming ! somethings wrong ...neglect ,being hit by a careless car, ignored by uncaring "owners" ,my babies are dying or dead! 8 pups total .the next morning only one has survived,.what has happened ?! they clean me up and try to comfort me all the while i've not shown any agression or distrust after all i have been through! they feed me and bathe me ,carry me out to use the bathroom as it hurts to walk. a heating pad for my last lil pup to keep us warm! i need surgery for my leg who will pay for it ? then i hear my "owners" call looking for me until they find out there is a bill and more is needed! not a ridiculious amount but too much it seems! now i'm just a stray that they have been feeding for only a week! hopefully the nice people who stopped in the van will call and maybe want to continue to help me?!! what will my fate be? someone works for the dr pets me and talks to me ,she tells me i'm a good dog and a sweet momma! she looks at my face wondering what kind of life i have had and how can i still be so kind and trusting? the name in her head for my pup is eve and she would like to call me hope! i like the name hope, as in i really hope things can only get better from here on out! i settle in for the night and wait to see what will happen in the morning waiting for my pain to subside and someone to claim me and help me get better ! the woman who works here will be thinking of me and wishing things will be ok that my pup and i will be alive in the morning to fight another day she is also my Human Interpriter. all pitbulls are not mean ,bad vicious dogs they don't deserve to be branded ,neglected and abused ,much less forgotten! espically one that's less than a day old and has the odds stacked against her! we made it through the night they take me out to potty and feed me but nobodys claimed me or wants to pay a bill to help me get my leg fixed! i'm brought up to an exam room an.d someone makes a last minute call to try and find help no answer no HOPE trusting and gentle even after all i have been through i have been given a shot something pink, it stings..i'm sleepy and now i cannot breathe! no response i have been euthanized! my babys next ,2 days old nobody wants her even though we have fought so hard to survive! finally someone grabs my baby this woman thinking you just cannot do this you cannot kill my eve! shes taken to a home now with a human mommy, being bottle fed kept in a pet carrier on a heating pad .hopefully she will make it even if i did not! all hallows EVE bday 10/30/09. here's to trying to make a difference and kepping a defenseless puppy alive! maybe there's still a little HOPE! pics will be posted soon of baby eve! i want to keep her if she makes it but most likely i cannot im hoping to raise her then find her a home

| That is the most heartbreaking thing I have ever read!! I would have paid although there is no way possible that I could've taken her ... I would've paid!! I wish I had known!! If ever anyone is in this situation again, please, please let me know? I will pay if you have the compassion to take care of the poor, innocent animal!! My heart is just broken.

| Little Eve is beautiful and she deserves a chance!! If you can help her thrive, I promise you, we will find someone who will give her a wonderful, loving, forever home! Please bear with me, I'm trying! There are experienced people out there who know this breed and will love and care for her. God bless you for saving her.

| Oh gosh that broke my heart! How sad! RIP Hope, heaven is better than what you went through sweet girl. Good Luck with that pup! I hope you find her a great home and she can live the life her mom never got to.
