Subject: ABUSED and SICK shar pei in NC

Please cross post!

The story:
My sister called me today while I was doing transport for the pregnant pitty. She had went to a yard sale in Kings Mtn, NC. The guy came out side and a dog came out with him that was skin and bones. The guy yelled at the dog and forced it back inside. When the dog turned around my sister noticed the back end of the dog was missing and appeared to have flies and bugs all over it. She called me....

I called animal control who did go there and the man denied it. He said the dog ran away. The officer searched his house and property but no dog was found.. After speaking to a neighbor I confirmed the dog has been there for the last year or two and has been roaming the neighborhood with this wound for at least 2 weeks. I decided to take matters into my own hands and went and explained to the gut that I was not with animal control and am an independent rescuer and that if he would sign the dog over to me I would get it taken care of. He said ok and went outside and got the dog out of a drain pipe. He put the dog in my car and signed the papers. I informed animal control of this and he said he would take care of it from there.

The owner, if that is what you call him, claims the dog chewed his tail off and he could not afford to take it to the vet. In my opinion the it looks like an axe was used and chopped his tail off to make a wound for a bait dog.

Now, I have the dog at my house. A vet friend of mine took a look at him for me today and she says that since it has been there for at least 2 weeks that I should not spend the large amounts of money at emergency vet and we started him on antibiotics and pain medications. I am taking him to my vet Monday to see what needs to be done. If anyone is interested in helping with medical bills please let me know and as soon as know what the treatment plan is I will direct you where to send money. As of right now it will be Conover Vet Hospital 103 Thornburg Dr SE. Conover, NC 828-465-5720. The Shar Pei rescue of Virgina has agreed to take the dog if they can find a home for it. Until then he is here at my house. I have named him Cezar!

Thank you so much!!!

Original Message: ----------------- Hey guys, please help me get the word out. We have Dora, a red/fawn female. whelped on 1/9/05. We have had her for about 5 months, longer that any other dog we have ever had. She is Small animal aggressive and we have been unable to find the right home for her. She is a very playful and loving dog. I am at a loss as to how to find her the appropriate home. Any ideas?

Litter of Boxer Puppies to be Gassed Tuesday Morning!
We ALWAYS make the save when a litter is to go down. Lets try to do it again!! These puppies are so precious. They are little 7 week old Boxer mix puppies. We need to get them OUT of Gaston County and into a vet where they can be quarantined, vetted, and have some down time!

Believe it or not these little puppies have been deemed UNADOPTABLE! What?????? Little 7 week old Boxer puppies unadoptable because they are SHY!!!

Lets get them OUT of there. There is alot that goes into pulling puppies. Litters are expensive because they must be quarantined which means they usually stay with a vet for 7-10 days and they need to be fully vetted. Can you help by sponsoring?


All puppies on this page come vaccinated, dewormed, fecal exam, and have a valid health certificate. You must sign a legally binding spay/neuter contract for any puppy under 5 months. You are responsible for the cost of spay/neuter but we will assist you in low cost spay/neuter options in your area. Once you show proof of spay/neuter we will refund you $50. His adoption fee is $350. Please keep in mind we quarantine all our puppies for 7-10 days after vetting and before transport. If you adopt one of these puppies it will take a little over 2 weeks to receive them.

Another Mercy - Baltimore, MD Thursday, 2:15 PM

I cannot believe it's happening again. Those of you who have been awhile will understand the irony of them naming her Mercy. When they brought her in..98%!!!!!!!!covered in burns she was wagging her tail

Please read and pass on. God help us all

Authorities said the dog was doused with gasoline Wednesday in the 1700 block of Calhoun Street in southwest Baltimore and then set on fire.

Baltimore city police Officer Syreeta Teel said she used her sweatshirt to put the fire out.

The dog, who rescuers have nicknamed Phoenix and Lil Mercy, was taken to the Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter, or BARCS, and then taken to the Swan Harbor Animal Hospital.

"This was one of the most cruel things I've ever seen. It hurt me to my heart," Teel said. "She was screaming, rolling around on the ground. I've never heard a dog make that sound."

Phoenix was covered in salve, wrapped in bandages and given pain medication.

"We're going to do quite a bit of prayer, a lot of antibiotics, a lot of bandage changes … just sometimes, the body just kind of goes into shutdown, really," said veterinarian Dr. Marcella Bonner.

Bonner said the dog had burns on 98 percent of her body. Pennsylvania's Main Line Animal Rescue said it will give the dog a window of several days to see if she responds to treatment before it considers putting her down.

"I think she's going to get worse before she gets better, if she does get better," Bonner said. "But she's trying. I can't believe she's even survived what she's survived."

“No animal deserves this type of treatment. This is one of the most severe cases of animal cruelty I’ve ever seen.”
- BARCS Executive Director Jennifer Mead-Brause

Phoenix is getting help through a BARCS program called the Franky Fund that helps homeless and abused animals get the medical care they need.

Those who donate to the fund can help cover the cost of Phoenix’s initial treatment and help others like her. To do so, visit the BARCS Web site.

“No animal deserves this type of treatment,” said BARCS Executive Director Jennifer Mead-Brause. “This is one of the most severe cases of animal cruelty I’ve ever seen.”

Police currently don't have any information on an owner or a suspect.

A reward of $1,000 is being offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible. Call 410-396-4698 and ask for the animal enforcement officer supervisor at the Bureau of Animal Control or call police.

If no one is caught after six months, the money used for the reward will roll over into the Franky Fund.
