Seized 6/21/13- Donations/Placement Needed: Eli, Charlie, and Benji

Lexington Police Officer Matt White was responding to an animal welfare call where he found 3 dogs living in shocking, deplorable conditions. The residence the dogs where at had no power at the location since May 24th, there was a small bucket outside of food that had gone bad in the refrigerator that they were going to use to feed the dogs…the bucket was full of maggots. The 3 dogs at the location are all males, 2 are terrier mixes (Charlie and Benji) and the other is a white Pit X (Eli). All three dogs where COVERED in crawling fleas, ticks (the worse we have ever seen), ear mites and flies and maggots were everywhere.

One of the smaller dogs weighing only 15 lbs was on a chain that weighed 6.6 lbs. The white Pit X (Eli) was chained inside a makeshift wood/chicken wire kennel that was covered in flies, ticks, fleas, and feces. He could barely get up to move around, he is emaciated and there was no food or water. The “owners” said they could not remember the last time they had opened his kennel and it became clear just how long it had been when Officer White had to physically break apart the wood to get inside to free the chained, frail dog. All three dogs where dehydrated, one of the small terrier mixes we named Charlie  has substantial hair loss, and the white male Pit X we named Eli is skin and bones, anemic, his ears have open sores from all the fly bites, wobbly on his feet, and his nails have curled under. Eli and Benji are HW positive.

All of these dogs are at our vet being bathed and treated. We will post more details on them as we get word in from Dr. Hedrick. Please keep them all in your thoughts and prayers. The white male is by far the worse and he turned away from the food that was offered to him. He did drink plenty of water though and he was so happy to finally have people loving on him. His tail is wagging, he is wobbly on his feet but hopefully he will eat soon so he will have the strength to make a full recovery.

Donations are needed for these dogs care (donate button at the top of the screen) and once they have been given the all clear they will need a foster or adoptive home to go into. If you can help please email us at GingersFund@live.com or PM us on Facebook. Thank you.

    My programmer is trying to convince me to move to
    .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because
    of the costs. But he’s tryiong none the less.
    I’ve been using Movable-type on a number of websites for about a year and am
    concerned about switching to another platform. I have heard good things about blogengine.net.
    Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress content into it?
    Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated!
