Just need to VENT-- UPDATE!!!!
Well sorry you all have to listen to this but I just need to vent.2 days ago I received a call from a coworker who runs a trailer court and someone moved out and left their dog there to fend for it's self.A really nice Golden Lab pup.He is pretty skinny So now I have another dog to try and fix.Why do people do this Larry figures he was on his own for a month.The owner just moved out without telling anyone and just left the dog I get so pissed at people who do this And now with people not being able to afford there houses they are moving to apartments and just leaving their animals to fend for themselves.Why can't these people at least drop them off at a shelter.This dogs ribs are sticking out and you can see his back bones.Know I have to fatten him up and try to find a new home for him.Don't get me wrong I love helping animals but why can't people take responsibility for their for their pets.We have a no kill sanctuary about 10 miles away and they are over run with animals of all kinds.They even have pet rats that people left them.They will take any animal.So here I am with poor BJ (thats what I named him) who is skinny and hungry as hell.He is such a nice dog too so hopefully I can fatten him up, train him and find him a new home.He has a cut on his front pad so he limps around.He just such a sweet dog I just can't imagine someone leaving him to fend for himself.
Thanks for letting me rant on about BJ's owners.I just get so upset I needed to vent a little bit.

Oh what a beautiful dog. I can't think of the word I want but can't the trailer park give the name of the people to the dog officer. That is a bad case of dog neglect. I also live in a trailer park and the same thing people move and leave the cats. I can't believe that people can do this. Hope everything goes well and you can find a good home for BJ.
