You and your husband are angels!! Thank you for saving that precious baby! :)

Thanks I appreciate your comment, most people would of done the same thing. I couldnt let her go another day with out doing something.
She will be safe, warm, healthy and loved from now on.:)

Wow! That is so sad!

Thank goodness for your kindness! I would hate the idea of her having to spend another winter outside!!!

Will you please post on how everything goes at the vet?

You have a lot of good Karma coming your way!

Thank goodness they are letting you take her. She looks so sad. I know you will find her the best possible home and in the meantime she will get some much deserved love and TLC. Bless you.:)

This is terrific news! I'm so happy she has you to get her out of there and on her way to a life of love and happiness. :)

Hugs,
Bonny

Wonderful news! Thank you for caring and saving her. She is beautiful :animal-pa

OH.MY.freakin'.EVERYTHING.

When I started reading this thread, my heart started racing and tears are in my eyes right now. I'm at work, and I thought I was going to explode - I was so mad and upset!!!

And then, you're WONDERFUL update. You are an angel! Tell your husband he too has such a great heart! She is absolutely beautiful, and has some of the most soulful eyes. You have given this special girl something she clearly has never had - tender loving care.

I hope you don't mind, but I'm going to move this thread to the General area. It's so important for people to really see what some humans do to animals - and, what a difference ONE person can make.

This is why rescues like Yorkie Haven Rescue, and other rescues, are so vital - and their work so meaningful. They see this kind of treatment, and WORSE. And, this is how an individual 'rescue', like you did Hugz4all4, can inspire others to help innocent fur kiddos.

You're awesome! Please give this little girl lots of hugs for us!

God Bless you and your husband....you did a wonderful thing for that poor baby....

Wow, sorry I just saw this post, God bless both you ad your husband for caring enough and doing something about it, you guys truely are angels, she's going to be spoiled I have no doubts. On another not your signature says 8 furbabies is that with this one or is this number nine?

GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND and I mean this with all my heart. You are two wonderful people. We have two Bassets and they are the most lovable dogs in the world. They are both house dogs and we have a very big back yard for them, my yorkie and my shorkie. All they want is to be loved. When I saw the photo my heart broke. I thought about our two basset girls and how loved they are and I just can't imagine anybody treating an animal that way. You and your husband are the best.

Just look at her little face. I seriously just don't understand how people can be so mean and neglectful to animals. And it appalls me that they got another dog. Wonder what will happen when the novelty wears off the shih tzu. :(

I am so glad that you are going to foster this sweet girl. Please keep us updated on her progress!

And they got ANOTHER dog ? That is infuriating. I hope they let you take her. I agree with calling the police or animal control. I wouldnt care if neighbors like THAT didn't like me for calling. Good luck !

No I dont mind at all..:).. I thought it was deleted..lol because I couldnt find. She is truly nothing but skin and bones. :mad: I went over again this morning to feed her, give her fresh water and some loving and she layed her head right into my legs as if to say thank you. I started crying again because I really dont know how anyone can treat an animal this way. I have made a appt. for the vets for friday, I explained to them what was going on, I was told in the mean time just to continue to feed her in small amounts and if she shows any signs of illness to call right away. I did find out for sure that she isnt fixed and did have some puppy shots right before they got her, but Im sure she is well over due. The vets did state that if she is truly as emanciated as I said she was that they wouldnt give her any vaccines at all untill she was at a healthy wieght. I looked up her breed and she is a "treeing walker" which is a type of coon hound and she should wiegh between 50 and 70 pounds (depends on what website) and my estimated guess that she wieghs between 20 and 30 pounds if that. When you pet her, you dont feel hair, you feel bones. :( I texted the nieghbor to let her know that I planned on coming over soon to get her and she told me that I couldnt untill she got home at 430. :eek::mad::thumbdown. So I dont have her at this moment, but I have been over there several times checking on her, petting her.. making sure she knows that it wont be long and she will be in a warm, safe, loving, home.
I really appreciate everyone's support with this. I will keep you all updated as much as I can on her progress.
Oh and her name is Rosie..:)

The cops have been called before on them and nothing was done. Animal control will not come out unless its warranted by the cops.

that is beyond awful & tragic!
