Dawn, you didn't mention the location of this courageous, to be still alive, dog. I'll send some additional funds this week to care for this one who seems to be hanging in there against all odds. Norma no L ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dawn Restuccia" <windwych@xxxxxxxxx> To: "gsd" <showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, December 04, 2008 3:15 PM Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Tis the Season.... ....when we are overwhelmed with GSDs in need. I received a plea today for a GSD who was left to starve on a short chain. This poor animal had no shelter from the elements; her ears are torn at the tops as if she may have been used for "bait". There were 6 other dogs at this house in various stages of starvation; however, they all had shelter. This skeleton of a GSD did not. I have never seen a GSD this emaciated that was still alive....LHSH has offered our assistance. Since she was part of an abuse case, there is a 15 day required hold. Anyone wishing photos of this dog, please contact me. WARNING...they are graphic. Please keep her in your thoughts tonight. She will need all the prayers she can get. Dawn Dawn Restuccia, Pres.
