Abandoned Dogs Found In Vacant Home Wednesday, February 17, 2010 | 6:12 PM -- CBC News Two dogs abandoned in a vacant house in southern Newfoundland were found Monday by police. A RCMP spokesman says police forced their way into a house in Dunville after receiving a report that starving animals were trapped inside. They discovered one emaciated dog was already dead and the other was barely alive. "The house had animal feces on the floor around where they were tied. One dog was tied to a wall with a hook. The other dog was tied to an appliance with a leash underneath the leg of the appliance, left there with no food or water," said RCMP Sgt. Boyd Merrill. Police said they're investigating a couple from the Placentia-Dunville area who moved out of the southern Avalon Peninsula region a few weeks ago. (Source: Read More) |
Rosie is a neglected/abused dog who was hit by a car on Friday evening. It didn't look as though she was going to make it, but she is now in stable condition. This poor creature experienced hell while living in Paradise, NL. If you can spare a few bucks to help pay her medical bills, perhaps she'll get a second chance and have more to eat than tin foil, orange peels, and screws.

UPDATE from Heavenly Creatures:
Rosie was released from the veterinary hospital on Friday evening - one week to the day of her accident. Rosie is now in foster care with local dog trainer Ken Reid, and is doing well - she's actually coming around faster than we thought she would, both physically and psychologically. However, Rosie is not yet healthy enough to be put under for her spay, and the removal of her broken teeth; her doctor says she has to wait a few weeks. In the meantime, she'll get plenty of TLC from all of us! As he does with all the dogs he fosters, Ken is keeping a blog of Rosie's progress: http://web.me.com/kenreid/The_World_of_Ken/Rosies_Blog/Rosies_Blog.html
We should soon have some new pictures of her to share with you.
