Animal control responded to complaints today from neighbors of a dog with strong odor being kept outdoors in the heat with no food or water. Being an inner city animal control, they often went on calls like this, but no one was prepared for what they found. A skeleton of a poor dog wagged his emaciated body as they approached. She  collapsed from the exertion and excitement of greeting a visitor, having been alone for days. The officer took her off the chain and brought her into the home, where she staggered over to the toilet and drank all the water out of it. Rescuers raced to meet animal control and get her to receive immediate medical care. The puppy’s tail never stopped wagging – she was so excited to finally have human contact and kind touch. The rescuers took her into their arms in a big fluffy towel because she was so frail. When they arrived and unwrapped her, she began wiggling again. She was so happy, her tail wagging furiously – all the while the rescuers were in tears as she tipped over again and again from weakness. That little heart seems to be what got her through so many long days and even longer nights. Daisy will be hospitalized and on IV fluids and antibiotics with 24 hour care for the next several days until she is stabilized. Food will need to be slowly reintroduced to her body. He is getting an immediate bath and skin treatment.

Please consider donating towards her fund so she can get the proper care she needs.

Thank YOU!
