V, be careful. Let us know how it goes. My fingers are crossed for you.

RATS - I just got back - (they live on a street behind me) and no one was home but I left a nice note in the mailbox. I hope considering someone (me) already called and reported them once - they'll take better care of this little dog ...I sure hope they take the note seriously because yes - I WILL be listening & watching...besides - I have the Trusty Spy Girls always spying on my neighbors Lol - they'll alert me if she's outside for long periods.

>>>Back in 2005 they had let their poor dog get in such bad shape his skin was RAW over 1/3 of his body - what I had thought was rust colors on him was BLOOD

I can't believe a person would purposefully let their dog get in that condition. Poor thing.

>>I need ideas because if this poor dog is going to be left outside like this ...I need to do something...she's just out there crying and crying and it's breaking my heart.

I read he had food and water. Is there a place for him to stay out of the sun. Is he tied up? I would keep an eye on him, and have that camera ready because you never know. Why would someone want a dog just to leave them outside anyway? Some people.....

Im glad you left a note...you can always do a follow up when they get home and see that they got your note...I always see dogs tied to trees or chasing my van and it sickens me...I didnt say anything but last week I killed a dog that ran out infront of my van...I was sick with sadness and angry that this dog was always let loose to run free and chase traffic..this has not been my year...Ive hit about half a dozen birds, and two baby raccoons...

oh shoot girl - I know that had to break you up. I'm sorry.

It wasn't your fault that's for sure...and that poor dog...from what you posted it sounds like he was out free alot ? I just don't understand WHY people do that.

and AMMARI - I totally agree with you. I would be upset even if this wasn't the same neighbor that was so horrible with their 1st dog...No dog should be left alone crying for long periods of time - when they hear them cry BRING THEM INSIDE !

ldenise · 07-02-2007, 02:00 PM

I know how frustrating it is. I have the same kind of thing in my neighborhood. there is a yorkie that is left out side most of the time. it is even hotter here in south texas. this poor yorkie got loose once and I informed the person where it lived. (I sure wish I had not) this was before I realized how much this yorkie was out there. It gets loose again you can bet your bottom dollar I will not let anyone know where it came from!
I have not seen it up close but my husband has. he said it is not well kept.
I can't do anything about either because they have a nice looking dog house for it to live in. SHAMEFUL!!!!! can you immagine the misquitos that they must have swarming on them?
since there is nothing I can do about it at this point........ when I have mine out on the patio (no more than 5 min at a time) I always say loud enough for them to hear me....." come on little yorkies babies it is way too hot around here for you to be out side." Probably doesnt' do too much good because I dont' think these people can speak english. bugt I have to get any old dig in where I can.
I know there are some people who disagree with me but I dont' think any dog regardless how big or ruff it is needs to be left out side in this heat.
go get 'em vi!!

Yes he was free all the time...I live in a very rural area and its common place for 'farm dogs' to run free...there are always a few that I know will be hit one day and this guy was one of them....a big beautiful Golden...I just didnt think I would be the one to do it...it was midnight and I was on my way to get my husband from work...thankfully he was killed instantly and didnt suffer but he could have had many more happy and healthy years if the owners just kept him inside and fenced in a part of their yard...they sure have the time and money for about 50 acres of land, beauiful cars in the driveway...why not build a nice fence for the dog to run around in....dog ownership is a privledge and people just think its their right to do what they want with them...it saddens me to no extent...sorry to go on and on but I will always wonder why dogs running free isnt investigated and enforced...at least here in our rural areas it isnt...

Good Job! Could the ASPCA do a welfare check during the day? I had Animal Control here come and talk to some people about how they care for their dog. That would give them a heads up that they are being watched. Does the little doggie have water?

Let us know what happens tomorrow, I hope they let her stay inside~

And yea, if you need help attaching the owners to a tree for 8+ hours in the sun with no water or shade, I'll help you with that

red98vett · 07-02-2007, 04:34 PM

YAY SO far so good

- it's almost 8 pm and I hear NO crying -

but If they do the same thing again tommorrow I'm going to ask some questions to the ASPCA since they've already had to save a dog from them

mizzwanned · 07-02-2007, 05:28 PM

Some people are so cruel!!! That just makes me so mad! I personally don't think they should be allowed to own dogs if that's how they neglected the last one they had.

babi1542 · 07-02-2007, 05:53 PM

V I hoped you solved the issue when you left the note. Let us know.

Judy in Waco · 07-02-2007, 06:03 PM

Go V!!! A poodle.....outside?

Texas heat is brutal, but let's not forget the humidity! The heat index is out of sight. Please keep us updated.

kjk723 · 07-02-2007, 06:16 PM

How Long does the dog bark???? In Pa there is a certain length of time they can bark and then the owners get warning and then a fine. That may encourage them to bring their dog inside. Look up the statutes in your area. It isnt the best answer but it may help getting the dog in the house!!!!

Catrina · 07-02-2007, 07:40 PM

Wow i just read this whole thing..

i hope the note got to them and they realize that they cant just leave a dog outside in scorching weather with no shelter!! Btw do they know it was you who wrote the note?

ChestersMom · 07-03-2007, 03:31 AM

Steal it and call me - I'll come get it. You know I have a soft spot for the little darlings who have not had a good start in life.
