Found Boxer & Pomeranian
You might want to email Florida Boxer Rescue to let them know the dog is in
the shelter. www.flbr.org -- Tara "Chris" wrote in message ink.net... My parents (who live in Tarpon Springs, FL-just north of Clearwater) found 2 dogs that they were told were purebred: 1) Black long hair Pomeranian, no collar, about 6 years old 2) Younger brown/tan Boxer-tail not clipped; female not neutered; collar. Both dogs very friendly; spent the night in my parents' home; no problem with their dog. Dogs must have been together as the little guy slept on top of the Boxer all night. Both dogs well cared for; groomed; well fed. Dogs appeared at their apt door after my father gave them water & food. He had spotted them in the woods behind their complex; obviously very thirsty & hungry. Unfortunately, they ended up in Pinellas Animal Control & so far no one has claimed them. I am posting in the event anyone might know owner of these two GREAT dogs. Please let me know if you have any leads. |

We got a dog from the rescue on Saturday that had been tied up all
winter with not very much to eat. Her name is MS Magoo and has the frame of a Lab but only weighs 20 pounds!! She has been eating three times a day but walks around in circles in the yard and the house wandering from room to room with seemingly no purpose. She is slow to react to much of anything. Her posture is with head held low to the ground like a hunting dog on a trail but she is like that all the time. We were wondering if the severe starvation could have scrambled her brain. Is there a point of no return in a starving animal? The rescue that had her had been feeding her for 5 weeks . Should she have gained a lot of weight in that time ? We will continue to care for her no matter what, it just seems odd that she does not react to the other dogs or the cats or even when we call her or talk to her. |

Subject: starved dog
From: carpist Date: 9/1/03 3:47 PM Pacific Daylight Time We got a dog from the rescue on Saturday that had been tied up all winter with not very much to eat. Poor sweet girl. Who knows the depth of the abuse she suffered (other than no food). Since you just got her Saturday I would assume she is gaining weight and has been checked out by a vet. She may be more confused by the rehoming combined with her sad history. Sounds like you have a dog whose needs will be many, at least emotionally and for awhile. She probably doesn't know what to think. BTW, thanks for taking her! Deb Shi the Svelte Georgie, Scurry-Stalker & Baby Lover Hank the Tank |
