With medication daily for three months and a bath in medicated shampoo, I am happy to say that he is beautiful now. Our plan was to find him a new home because we already have several dogs, but he has found a home with us. I wish I could rescue every animal that is homeless. I spoke with the local animal shelter after we picked him up and they said they would take him but would most likely have to put him down. She also told me that they have many animals that just need someone to visit them and hold them because they are so scared. I am trying to get enough courage to do this, but I am not sure I can handle some of the situations. Just thinking about makes me weep. God bless the people that try to take care of these animals. The video was heart breaking but needs to be viewed by many. |
Thank god you found that dog. If the dog catcher would have picked him up I'm sure he would have been put down right away. You're doing a great thing. I think everyone should watch the video. A lot of people choose to pretend that it doesn't happen or effect them. I'd love to see a picture of your new dog.
