[stazy]

Not basenji related but a story I felt was worth sharing….

That video brought forth some rather intense emotions in me; shock, sadness, disbelief, and anger. Any person who would starve an animal like that then toss it out in the trash should be strapped to the electric chair. :mad:

[Basenjimamma]

oh my ….I am speechless...Poor poor animal...
Yes he needs to be strapped to a chair get lit on fire..in my very humble opinion.

It's said that we can judge a society by how they treat their most innocent, being children and animals. This is unspeakable. I could not open and watch the video. The sad picture was really enough for me to see. :(

I now turn my head to see Kipawa sitting in front of the fireplace, watching the warming flames. Our animals are so innocent and are our angels. They deserve the best of everything. My heart hurts that this animal did not have a loving home. Rest in peace, little angel.

The video is the best part…It shows the progress he's making!

New reports on the dog show it is improving, not dead, Fran.

I couldn't get the video to play but had seen others. It makes me sick, breaks my heart. I am glad the dog is NOW getting care. Here is the updates:

WHAT? Are you telling me the dog on that table is not dead? I will not watch the video, the picture alone almost made me vomit.

I understand that people need to share this sort of stuff, I have some FB friends that have shared stuff that I wish I'd never seen…but I REALLY don't need or want to see it. I suppose the title should have warned me...maybe someday I will learn.

Yes, much to the surprise of the clinic treating him, the dog is still alive and making progress.

[Basenjimamma]

Bless his adorable little heart..I hope he gets a forever family when the time comes that will treat him as the gift he truly is.

Oh, heavens, this photo brought tears.
Shame on the humans who did this…shame!

Fran,
Watch the video. It brought tears of joy for the spirit of this pup. Bless the folks who helped this poor boy.

[Schouiffy]

So happy he is pulling through. There is a PayPal donation set up on his Facebook page. =)

Ohhhhh…. I guess I just looked at the picture and thought that if an animal looked like that it HAD to be dead. Not sure if I can open the video - my heart just does not take well to stuff like that. When they show SPCA or animal shelter commercials on TV I usually change the channel. But I don't ignore animal shelters. We donate every year.

Sharron, I am like Andrea. I just cannot look at pictures like this. I'm so happy the video shows improvement, but I still can't watch it. I guess I am a wuss when it comes to animals.

Yes, you are :p

[gbroxon]

From the picture, I thought the baby was dead, too. How could someone…why would someone...? I just will never understand...

Blessings on this baby and his rescuer. The ba$tid who did this will get his/her comeuppance someday.

[Benkura]

Those eyes are gorgeous. I wish he was closer to me so I could help. I hope he makes a full recovery.

Hugs to Patrick :)

[Patty]

It's really good to know that he is being helped and now hopefully will recover. Bless him, the poor dog. Humans can sink to some terrible depths.

My first thought: Are you $@#&*$% kidding me?!? What kind of a &#&$% !?$@# would do such a @%$ thing?!? If I could get my hands on this &@#$!? %^(@# )%!!?$ %#$@, I'd show 'em what a &#(% garbage bag is for and exactly how many orifices one #%@!& bag could simultaneously fit in!!

Some people are despicable!

Second thought: This is one amazing pup. The resilience of life never ceases to stun me.

[DebraDownSouth]

I can't watch the videos either, only TRIED that one cause I already saw pics on face book and knew he was doing better. My heart just cant take things like that.
