Extremely Urgent !!!! Injured BABY Pit Bull Mix Poss. Broken Leg

 

 

 I believe he is a pit bull mix about 5 years of age or maybe younger, brown in color and a

male.  His teeth and hair are in good condition.  No distinguishing marks.

 

He seems to be aggressive around my dogs, but friendly with people.  His

back leg is injured, possible broken.

 

I am deseparately looking for a no kill shelter or home for him.

Also, I can bring him to a foster home

If they can't come here and I can help a little financially.  Not much,

But anything helps.

 

Thanks so much.  I work in Dallas during the day, but will keep my cell

Phone handy.

Blind Shepherd Mix Needs A Home - Jersey City, NJ

CONTACT INFO:  lhs@libertyhumane.org (libertyhumane.org)

 

 

 

An active 5 years old, Boogie is in the prime of his life. In addition, despite being a shepherd mix, he is just 38 lbs.

He may seem a little shy and hesitant in new situations. However, that is only because Boogie is blind. (Since he was picked up as a stray, it goes without saying that this dog is pretty resourceful).

Don't feel sorry for him or write him off as too much labor...Since dogs rely more on scent and sound, blindness isn't as big deal to him as it might be to a human and many blind humans manage just fine.

Like Tina Turner sings in "Proud Mary", he just needs to take things nice, slow and easy when you start walks. Let him get his bearings by touching you ever so slightly. Once he gets a feel for where he is, you can take things up a few notches:-)! Boogie is also very affectionate and outgoing. His dark eyes sparkle and smile. He is into heavy petting and will bestow tons of kisses in return. Some people even call him goofy.

Goofiness aside, he possesses impeccable manners and puts the GENTLE in gentleman. Boogie seek a quiet home with someone who would be willing to be his seeing eye person.

Boogie is waiting for that special someone at the Liberty Animal Shelter in Jersey City, NJ.  If you can give him the second chance he deserves, please contact lhs@libertyhumane.org, or better still, stop by the shelter to meet him.  The Liberty Animal Shelter is located at 235 Jersey City Boulevard, (Exit 14C off the NJ Turnpike, across from Liberty Science Center parking lot entrance) Jersey City, NJ

JACK-#24391 4 YRS 3 LEGS

 

 

Poor Jack is enough to break your heart. He's obviously been through some severe trauma in his short life, but he's as calm and loving as he can be. He is missing his front left leg, and he has scars all over his head and body. He's also quite emaciated. Jack needs some kind soul to save him from his current situation so that he can finally live the life he deserves. Even with all of his injuries and apparent malnourishment, Jack gives and receives love with such grace that it is almost impossible to imagine him being the product of a neglectful home. Rescue groups, potential adopters, or anybody else, please help find a way to let Jack live the rest of his life experiencing the comfort and love that his first four years have been missing.
Update from another volunteer: #24391-- Jack has had a really rough life, but he is such a gem! Even though he is in such pitiful shape, you can see his beautiful soul shining through. He is also possibly housebroken-- he did all of his business once we let him out, and he will never be one to spray or mark as so many male dogs do, since he needs to use both back legs to stay upright. Jack needs an angel to help him out-- will you be the one?

 

 

Special Needs Boston Terrier - Gaithersburg, MD Seizure disorder

Is there someone on this list who might be able to take this guy?

Boston Terrier 1 Year Old Male

Found on Craigslist washington dc

Reply to: comm-381577533@craigslist.org
Date: 2007-07-25, 1:05PM EDT

Sweet and loving little dog needs a house that is one story and has a fenced back yard. He is very quiet and mostly well behaved (although an obedience class would be good for him). He is a pure bred Boston terrier and he just turned one year old. He is small and weighs only 15 lbs. We took him as a rescue but he has had a couple of seizures and has fallen down the steps in our house so we don't think it is safe for him here. We think he needs to go to a home that is only one story. If you think you are interested in him, please send an email. Thanks!

The owner's name is Diane Levene. Here is her email address:

Location: Gaithersbug

Tiny old, blind boston Needs a home

If anyone has a soft spot for senior bostons, Gwinnett AC has this little lumpy old blind girl who will be due out in a few days. I have no idea how long she will live out of the shelter - she is totally ancient, But there's a very sweet little girl behind the gunky eye, the lumps and bumps and the "old dog" body. All she needs to be happy is a soft spot to sleep (she doesn't move from her blanket too often), and someone to cuddle her - she loves to be cuddled up against someone.

 

If there are any die hard boston lovers that might like to give her a comfortable place to spend whatever time she has left, please give

Officer Hughes a call: 770-339-3200 (dial 0 at the message).

Jonesboro GA Dog dragged behind car needs donations (Graphic Pics)

 Jonesboro, GA graphic pics, dog dragged behind car. 

 

 

REPOSTING

This sweet little dog had been dragged behind a car. Someone said the car /truck had the dog's leash hooked to the bumper and dragged him forever, his leash broke and this person called ac. This is the first time I have seen an animal that was in this condition. We rushed him to the vet. We are going tomorrow to see how he is doing. they do not know if it was done on purpose or not..

 

 

 

GRAPHIC IMAGES BELOW!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The dog that was dragged behind a car is at Jonesboro Animal Clinic in Jonesboro. The rescue that will be taking the dog though is Atlanta Pet Rescue so donations probably need to be sent to APR because the dog will be going to a different vet on Monday and APR is the group that will ultimately be picking up the bill. So instead of the Jonesboro Clinic possibly being overpaid please just ask that donations be sent to APR.

Atlanta Pet Rescue's site address is www.atlantapetrescue.org and they also have a paypal button.

They have an address that goes directly to the donations that is

Thank you!!

McMinnville, TN - DEAF Male Dal URGENTLY needs help!

This handsome boy was pulled by an independent rescuer named Linda Greene in TN.  Pongo is DEAF and is not doing well in his current foster environment.  He is living outside with quite a few other dogs.  He has been there since the  end of April and did great for the first 6 weeks.  He has seemed to get more and more upset being there and just started acting out with 3 of the other dogs.  Pongo has been fine with the others.

 

Pongo is about 1 year old, neutered, up to date on shots, hw negative and on prevention.  He seems to be having more and more trouble in the current environment.  Linda feels Pongo would do fine in a home environment with just 1 or 2 other dogs and with someone who could work with his deafness.  He seems to be very unhappy outside and uneasy with so many other dogs.  Has to be hard being deaf, being outside all the time, and being "on guard" with so many other dogs.

 

Can anyone give this handsome deaf boy a chance or atleast get him and evaluate him in another environment? 

Linda's contact info is:  labluvr0003@yahoo.com  (labluvr0003 @ yahoo.com)

4 week old Leonard is BLIND, has an ENLARGED HEART, Donations needed for medical care.

Leonardo is pronounced, "lay oh NAHR doh".

 

 

We received a call from a man who lives in the country near Clyde, Ohio, and he said one of his outside cats had a blind kitten, and a local veterinarian suggested he call S.P.A..

I gave him information about our low cost spay and neuter program after hearing that there are often kittens being born outside there, and he said he wasn't concerned about them, that they either found homes or weren't a problem (you know what that means).

This little, blind 4 week old kitten was OUTSIDE, and when I asked him to bring him inside where the kitten would be safe he made it clear that that wasn't going to happen.

He said he was leaving town for a few days, and he MAY email me a photo when he returned. I was very concerned the kitten would be dead by then.

Even though we are very low on money and maxed out with foster animals, I called the other members of S.P.A. and they agreed that we had to take this kitten. The kitten was taken to Fremont Animal Hospital.

His eyes are shriveled up under his eyelids, and he is indeed TOTALLY blind. He is missing most of his tail and has a very bad heart murmur. Doctor Alexander suggested an X-ray.

Upon evaluation, the doctor said that it looks like the left side of his heart is quite enlarged, and he suggested we take him to OSU College of Veterinary Medicine so a cardiologist can make recommendations.

The problem is that will be a very expensive visit.
We are hoping to raise donations that will enable us to get Leonard to OSU as soon as possible.


Donations can be made online
through S.P.A.'s Paypal Account at:
www.spaohio.org.

Or, Donations can be mailed to:
Leonard's Heart Fund
P.O. Box 1047
Fremont, OH 43420

Leonardo is currently at Fremont Animal Hospital. We hope to be able to get him in to OSU College of Veterinary Medicine as soon as possible.

Thanks for your donation and/or prayers. This poor little guy is so darned sweet, but he is spunky! That is why I named him Leonardo, meaning Brave Lion.

TN - Minnie, CUTE kitten, needs rescue/home ASAP.

Please click the following link to read about Minnie and see her pictures:
http://ucat.us/Minnie.html

Minnie is a sweet and playful 3-4 month old kitten who was born with no bowel control. She does not require assistance to relieve herself, but she also can't control WHEN she does it. She does TRY to use her litterbox if she feels it coming on, and uses it very good for urinating. She is very happy, healthy, and cute as a button. She was left at her vet's office to be euthanised, but her vet feels she deserves a HOME! She is very happy, and lives a GREAT quality of life. Please take a few moments to read more about her on her webpage, and consider offering her a home, where she can play and do everything any normal kitten would do!

Atlanta GA: Dori the crossed eye kitty with emotional problems needs home FAST

If you can open your heart and home to Dori, Please contact  Barbara at: (631) 261-4321  or blowe@optonline.net 

Little bio on Dori. Came to me via the Washington shelter (she helped NEGAS when they got over run with cats) she came with 4 kittens who were not hers and was a bag of bones. When I saw her at the shelter, I told them that I would be back for her, the crossed eyes are great! She raised the kittens, and is now spayed and hanging here. She does not seem to understand that her tail is hers and that is why it is always following her. She attacks it viciously and fights with it most of the night. It is looking pretty ratty at the moment. Her coat and weight look good, she is still a little skittish, I just do not think she can focus and can not see that there is only one of you coming to pet her. I am not sure what to do with her at this point, and need someone who has the time, resources, and money to figure out what is best for her. She is a doll.

 

Dori loves people but hates her tail. thinks it's something evil on this earth to torment her.
chases it if she notices it following her.
she is fully vetted.

 

 

Becky,

 

The cats are located in the Atlanta metro area. They are inundated down there with cats and kittens and any "unadoptables" don't have much chance - so I know she's desperate to place any she can.

This dog was brought in as owner surrendered. He lost his leg defending

is brought here by a family member. One of the stories is "the owner

patiently waiting for a home. He is neutered and is 6 years old. He has

CRIPPLED BOXER BABY NEEDS HELP!!!! Louisiana

PLEASE SEND TO ALL THE BOXER RESCUES YOU KNOW!!!

I just pulled a small white boxer from local animal control.  His back legs are crippled.  He has some hip dysphasia but other than that they is nothing physically wrong with them.  He can move them and they paddle up and down when you pick him up.  The problem is neurological.  His brain is just not firing the right signals off to the legs to make them work properly. 

He is very skinny and a little food aggressive which makes me believe that he had to fight for food among his siblings.  But he is a very loving and happy pup otherwise.  He is probably around 10 weeks old and full of urine burns from laying in his own urine.  The baby can lead a very happy life in a wheelchair. 

Please send this to all the boxer rescue groups that you know and let's see if we can get some help for this boy.  I am not financially able (nor do I have the required space) to care for this sweetheart as he needs to be.  Thanks.
