Many thanks to those who sent me these pictures from all over
the Nation. This page is dedicated to those who work so tirelessly to prevent animal
abuse/neglect and for those animals that we were unable to save in time.
Please be patient and wait for the page to
load. It is obviously graphic intense.
In this case this chow was basically left in backyard of house and
ignored/starved to death,, Picture 1 is how I found dog,, Picture 2 is at vet, shaved to
show emaciation. This dog owner was found guilty of cruelty, fined, and suspended jail
sentence, community service. (VA)
These pictures of a Doberman were taken in VA. The owner was taken to court where
she admitted that she kept the dog in these conditions, but couldnt understand what was
wrong with that?? Owner found guilty of neglect and fined.
This and the two next pictures were all taken when several animals were seized from a
"hoarder" or "collector". These are very typical conditions in
which these animals are kept. Thanks to monkeymom for submittal. (MO)
This dog, along with three others in similar shape and condition were found chained in
this backyard. Special thanks to Monkeymom for these pics. (MO)
We received this call as an injured dog that had been hit by a car three times.
The officer took the dog to the veterinarian immediately who suspected that the
older dog had developed quite a large tumor over it's eye and when she was hit by the car,
the tumor exploded. It was hard to believe that this dog was actually up and walking
around! She was however euthenized to spare her any further pain. (MO)
This cat was doused with a flammable liquid and then set on fire. She ultimately had
to be euthenized to spare her from her misery. (MO)
This is what happens to animals when someone becomes a "collector". This
cat had severe flea dermatitis. So severely she had to be euthenized. (MO)
This dog, left tied and forgotten to a tree in the
backyard where children played was severely malnourished. Notice food and water
dishes empty and forgotten by the owner. The dog was taken and later euthenized
because the dog could no longer digest food. (MO)
This dog is
scarred from old oil burns he had received. (AL)
This dog had a shoestring tied
around his neck as a collar since he was a puppy and was never removed. Below the
first injury is a second one where a wire coat hanger was also used later on as another
collar. (AL)
This dog's leg
was intentionally burned because the owners were tired of the dog barking. Some
lesson. (MO)
A dog was found to be tied to a fence on this leash that didnt even extend two feet.
The picture next to it was the condition of the water/food bowl left for the dog
which hadnt had anything in it for some time. Notice the fecal accumulation around
the dish.
This is a sweet Old English Sheepdog. Her hair was so matted, the animal control
officers feared she would have open wounds under the coat so she was taken to a groomer to
be shaved. To the astonishment of the animal control officers,,, this is what they
found....(MO)
This dog was
found to have several open sores all over its body that were infested with maggots.
The dog was euthenized.
