Hey folks, this dog came to us with AKC papers!

We don't know how old he is. We just know that he spent his
whole life in a Commercial Breeding facility in Lancaster
County, fully licensed by the state of PA. We know that this
breeder was inspected three times in the last year and a half.
No violations. How could a warden walk by this dog three times
and not issue a vet check? He is suffering from malnutrition,
dehydration, ulcers in both eyes (permanent damage), mange,
infections in both ears, and what's left of his teeth will need
to be pulled if and when he is strong enough. He had numerous
parasites and is being treated for a very contagious organism
that's attacking his intestinal tract. The Vet Hospital who is
now treating him tell me he is one of the sweetest dogs they
have ever met. Can anyone tell me why this is allowed to
continue? Look at his spine. It will cost us thousands of
dollars but we'll get him well and find him a home. I hope and
pray that things will change soon.
