Rescue Rottweiler

Today at work, a starving neglected rottweiler made itself known by reaching an all-time low and begging for handouts. For some reason I felt as though I could help this dog. I hope I am correct. After talking with the boss (Jenn), we decided to try our luck with assisting this dog back to health. After a borrowed truck ride to the Pet Clinic we wait for the up dates on her health and current frame of mind.

She is in pretty bad shape with skin, eye, nutrition, and other issues. I can only hope that she is not too far gone to be unrecoverable. Before the truck ride, she stood between my legs while leaning on one, looking at me with infection covered eyes, as if she was ready for recovery. She was so weak especially in the hind legs that she needed assistance getting in and out of the truck bed.

So here is 'Nugget' as she is allowed to pass-out from exhaustion and a healthy meal. The cool, air-conditioned room helps too. She's in line to get her shots and blood work completed. We're hoping there are no heart worm issues, considering the treatment is expensive.

Guardian Kitty

Wondering where Libby was, Flux and I search the house...
She appears to be enjoying the comforts of a newborn before the spot is taken...
