Dennis was found by someone after being abandoned under a bridge and left to die. Â The poor dog was so sick, and barely able to fend for himself at all.
“Dennis was abandoned on a bridge and was left to die. When a young man, Gabriel Sepulveda passed by on his skateboard, he saw Dennis and remembered watching the Hope For Paws video of Jordan, so he knew to call us. Â It took Lisa Chiarelli and I two hours to get to the location, and what we saw was horrifying. Dennis was on the ground, unable to move, and was covered with ticks. Â We picked him up, rushed to the hospital, and we started the process of taking all the ticks off and cleaning him up. Â While doing that, we rushed Lisa’s dog (Lola) to the hospital so she could donate blood for Dennis as he suffered from severe anemia. Â For the next 5 days Dennis was seen by neurologists, cardiologists, and internal medicine specialists, but all of this was not enough… Dennis was too far gone, and his body was shutting down. Â Not all rescues have happy endings… it’s important to understand that! Â Dennis was neglected somewhere for a long time, and no one spoke for him. If you see an animal in need, please say something… do something. Â Please share so people will know to take action next time they see a case of neglect or abuse.
Thank you!
