I received an email at work in APril, 2007. It showed a list of animals that
were about to be euthanized down in Dade County. I live in Browrad County. I
already have two dogs, and a few other pets. But for some reason - I opened the
email. The very first face I saw grabbed my heart. It was so similar to the two
loving faces that I had at home. I was at work and had to think fast. I called
the Dade pound right away on pure instinct. They told me to get there before 5pm
to save her. I agreed. I raced the clock and arrived on time. When I got there,
they told me that they had not spayed her because there were complications. She
had a blood test which showed the worst case of heart worm they had ever seen.
She also had Kennel Cough, her white blood cells were off, her lungs were
scarred, her heart was grossly enlarged, she had fleas, ticks, was anemic...and
basically would most likely not survive.
