Trouble with Teri
January 28th, 2015
Why is Teri
hurt? Well the truth is I don’t know
why. I don’t know where she came from,
who had her, why she was abandoned nor do I know the who, what or how of the
condition of her hurt leg. All I know is
that I received a call from someone informing me that a new stray has shown up in
her neighbourhoo; the stray is a female who is very thin and timid. The person who called me said…” I didn’t want
to feed her but I felt sorry for her because she was so thin. I didn’t want her to hang around and cause
trouble with the neighbours….but she was so thin so I gave her something to
eat. The next day she had a hurt
leg. I think it is broken so I thought
of calling you for help.”

Who Would Do This To Zachary?
The call is made and I hear the voice on the other end…can you meet me in half an hour? When we meet we begin to do what needs to be done.
He was wandering in this condition for who knows how long until he was spotted by two of our volunteers.
Where did he come from? Who tied the rope around his neck? By the size of the loop, the rope had been tied when he was considerably smaller and younger. As he grew, the rope began to cut into his throat. About one to two years old, he is very thin and half the weight he should be. He is covered in prickly burrs.

Rebecca - The Rope around her Neck.
Rebecca, an adorable girl about one years
old, grew up at the end of a short rope.
Her owner tethered her next to a make shift house and that was all Rebecca
knew. She ate there, she slept there, she sat there, she baked in the sun there, she did her doggie business there and paced back and forth. Yes, she had food and water but
that was it. Her owner didn’t bother to
pet her, touch her nor walk her. Her
owner didn’t even consider that as Rebecca grew the rope around her neck would
have to be adjusted for her size.
Rebecca grew and the rope that was now her noose began to cut into her
neck, choking her.

Magda - Hit and Run!
July 15, 2014
Earlier this evening, we get the call…emergency….a dog hit by a car lying on the side of the road. I have named her Magda. She is very wary towards humans and she put up a bit of a fuss. The x-rays show; bones in her pelvis are broken on one side. She can’t walk nor stand. The break is in a spot that will mend itself. There is some pressure being placed on her bowls increasing her discomfort.

Tiny and Vulnerable ... Yet Abandoned
They are so
vulnerable and tiny. They can’t fend for nor
feed themselves; they won’t survive alone. Someone who has a female dog, allows her to
get pregnant, to go through the whole process of giving birth; to start raising
them and then when they are just shy of 2 months they take her babies away from
her and dump them somewhere not knowing or caring about their fate. The dangers are numerous.
