Stories like that just devastate me. I have several dogs in my home now they are here because of abuse. Silly me, thought that I would rescue them and rehome them- yea, right, I got attached, didnt work. Foster Failure here. I have neighbors who are stupid rednecks who think that it is fun to shoot dogs. I live in fear that one of my goofs will get out of the fence and be shot. I too would need bail money. The more I hear about abuse, the more I just get sick to my stomach. I have a personal belief in karma-I sure hope that I am right in that belief. I have considered obtaining a 501c3 and doing rescue work- I am just afraid that without some major help, I would get in over my head and then the animals would not benefit from my good intentions. I saw pics of the Rottie last week- lets hope someone who can will step up and take him in.
