What could I have done? so upset!!!! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

mscat · 09-15-2009, 11:58 AM

Last night, it was cold ! the temperatures dropped down where I live. I was woken up be a terrible crying, moaning, sound. I thought it was a child crying somewhere close to me building.
my son , goes to school at 6:15am . I told him I could hear a child or something crying all night long. My son goes out the door, and tells me, "mom that is a dog!" he is angry and upset the animal sounds hurt, in pain and nobody is doing anything!
It was too early in the morning , still dark , to do any investigating. I did not hear the animal anymore , but then thought the worst.
At 12 noon, I hear the dog once more hysterical .This time I took action, and followed the crying and hollering noises. It came from accross the street somewhere in a apartment complex . I take my cell phone with me in case I needed help with a injured dog somewhere.
I come accross the dog .It is a baby chi. A little puppy in an upstairs apartment , locked outside on their balcony .The baby puppy sees me, and pushes its little body between the bars that he/she could easily have fallen into my arms. The pup wants me, wagging it's tail , and excited to see me . I get scared that the baby is going to try and jump. I look to see the apt number, then head straight to the manager's office.
I tell her that I live accross the street and have listened to a puppy screaming and crying as in pain ALL NIGHT Long! The manager wants me to show her, and I do ! Sure enough the puppy is there crying .
The poor little baby Chi has been there all night long in the cold screaming. Nobody in the complex had reported it ! If I could hear the baby screaming , I know others must have too!
As we I am talking to the manager and we are looking at the balcony the sliding glass door opens a crack and the tenants let the puppy inside. I told the manager again the pup has been left on the balcony screaming and hollering all night long in the cold weather!

The manager is going to take care of it. I am so sad for the puppy. Could not have been more then 8-12 weeks old.
I do not understand people ! How could they have done this?

So sad and angry. The little puppy is so cute, and must have been freezing all night.

that makes me so mad, i hope you can report them somehow and get the puppy removed from them and given to a loving home that would take of it. stupid people make me so angry. poor baby!! i hope you can do something about their horrible ownership somehow.

Cerise · 09-15-2009, 12:06 PM

That is so sad. They must have saw you. Idiots! Chihuahua's don't take cold weather well and leaving any dog on the balconey in the cold is bad, especially when they are up high catching all the air.

ARCHIE · 09-15-2009, 12:06 PM

OMG I'm sick! You did the right thing however now you need to watch
and see if that puppy is out in the cold again. Then I would call the
cops and they should be able to direct you to the animal welfare person
to look into the matter. Each city, village has someone in charge of
animal protection I think. Here they do. That poor puppy freezing all
night long. I would let the police handle this. You don't know what
kind of people your dealing with here. That's a terrible story.
I feel bad that now it's going to drive you nut's until you know for
sure this puppy is inside and safe. At least as safe as it's going to be
living with such horrid people.

Cerise · 09-15-2009, 12:07 PM

You did good going over their and reporting them

Deenie · 09-15-2009, 12:13 PM

Poor little baby

lovespandp · 09-15-2009, 12:13 PM

wow how horrible!! Does your phone have a camera??

The next time this happens or anything that you can catch.. take a picture of it and take it and show animal control... maybe they will start to investigate them

mscat · 09-15-2009, 12:14 PM

i'd like to see those people spend the night on the balcony with nothing to keep them warm!

lovespandp · 09-15-2009, 12:16 PM

Thats so wrong.. you know what they probably got this puppy and maybe the puppy was crying a lot and they didnt want to listen to it so they locked it outside for the night... I mean why else would they do that!!

I could nevvvvvvvvvvver do that to anything living!! Thats horrible.. Poor Poor chi..and you know the sad thing is treatment to this chi will get worse, if they have the mind to do that what else will they do??

yes, I have a camera on my phone, that was what I was planning on doing. I live in a very small town, we do have animal control here. I thought since the manager was there, I ought to speak to her, and let her deal with them. She agreed that it was way too cold for a pup to be outside all night. Pissed me off that nobody else did anything about it. I live accross the street and heard the baby screaming all night, I do not beleive for an instant that noboby else heard

PiePiper · 09-15-2009, 12:17 PM

Thank goodness there are people like you in the world who react when there is a need for something to be done. I'm amazed how so many people are numb to there surroundings and don't notice or CARE that someone or something could need help. You should be very proud of yourself for taking action.

Yorkiedaze · 09-15-2009, 12:19 PM

I would have gone straight up there and told the owner I'd take the puppy since it's obvious they don't want it and if they get nasty then I'd tell them that if I see or hear that puppy on the balcony at night like that again, I'll call the police and have it taken from them. What moron's.

Well thank goodness for you!! That's even more sad that people didn't care to go do something.. I mean what were the neighbers doing??

I hope you can get some more dirt on them, so something will happen..I wouldn't even know what to do I would want the poor baby out of that house, I wouldn't want to take it to the pound.. Maybe a chi rescue..

This is absolutely appalling

! Good for you. So many people don't want to get involved especially if it's a neighbor. You definitely did the right thing! I say NO SECOND CHANCES and if you hear it again I would do what Archie suggests and call the police. Anyone who would treat a little dog that way could be capable of anything.
