Hello my name is Lore & you may notice a Pitbull in this listing, I've named him "Lucky" because he is lucky to be alive! What I am about to tell you may be hard to read, but I have to tell his story. On 8-19-09 while driving to work, this poor dog was struck by a pick up truck! He made several attempts to get up out of the road away from all the other cars (mind you it's rush hr traffic) this dog finally after about 7/8 attemps got up and crawled across three lanes of traffic onto the sidewalk. I watched in horror from my truck & immediately pulled over! See I had no idea it was a pit, I just knew it was a dog and I am a HUGE dog person, so I hopped out of my truck and as I got closer to him is when I realized it was a pitbull! I hesitated for half a second, because I have always been afraid of pitbulls, but I figured if he bites me, it's a chance I am willing to take, so I go over to him & softly talk to him & put my hand out for him to smell me, he rests his mouth in my one hand, I take my other hand & put it under his chin and that's when the blood started to come! I was in complete panic mode thinking this poor animal is going to die right in my arms! I pray to God to please help me & that's when another car pulled in behind mine, it was a young girl, a stranger, someone I have never met or seen before & she says she saw him get hit & wants to know what she can do to help me, so she calls the police & they contact animal control. It takes animal control over an hour to come, so while we wait with this injured dog who is yelping in pain and bleeding & in extreme pain, we talk to him, tell him help is on its way & to hold on! I go to my truck & find a jacket & cover him with it, he looks at me with such tenderness in his eyes as if to say thank you. I put ice cubes in my hand for him to lick because he wouldn’t drink out of my cup & he takes a few licks! He is trembling & me & this complete stranger are crying. Animal control comes, we help her get him on a stretcher & into the truck, she puts an iv in him & tells me he won't make it. Now I am out right crying like as if he is one of my own personal dogs. I cry the whole way to work. I call and check on him like every couple hours & they say he is stable & is on pain medication. The next morning I call & they give me the news. Lucky has multiple fractures throughout his pelvic on both sides, he is a mess but can still stand but barely. I check on him every day to see if his owner has claimed him, but of course he/she does not. The pound tells me that if he is not claimed by Saturday 8-22-09 9:36am he will be put down or I can adopt him! So of course what do I do, I have adopted him, but only to spare his life. He will be going into Pit Rescue once I get him & then in for surgery. This Pit Rescue "Sun Valley Dog Rescue" has no funds to pay for his medical but will foster him until he is better then find him his forever home:) So now my mission is to get as many donations as possible to help pay for his medical which will be in the thousands! So all of my listings will be for "Lucky’s" medical expenses, so please take a look at everything I have & know that your sale will go straight to Lucky! If you want to make an additional donation, please contact me and I will give you the name/phone# of the vet & who to make it out to so that your donation goes straight to Lucky! The pictures you see in this listing is Lucky at the pound! Me, my husband and son went today 8-22-09 to visit with him & take some pictures to show people just how sweet this dog is & yes he is a pitbull! In one of the pictures I am holding up a red jacket & he is smelling it because it was the jacket I used to cover him with! You will notice in one of the pictures also how he is lying down & when he saw me, he got up & hobbled over to me wagging his tail & giving me kisses through the fence! He remembered me. If you would like additional information about Lucky please let me know. I have video too that I can email you if you like. I just want Lucky to get the best care and to be pain free than get adopted into a family that will love him all the days of his beautiful life. Please help me. Thanks for reading this lengthy listing. If you know of anyone who would be interested in helping out Lucky, please send them this listing to read and contact me if they would like to make a contribution to his medical. Thank you. |
