I just saw this on my home page. People when someone moves out of a home on your street or near you please listen for pets or pay attention to the windows and see if you see animals in the window or hearing barking,whining, scratching. Please just keep an eye out the next time someone moves out esp. if you know they had animals. No animal should be left to fend for themselves.
This is so great to see people that care. I am one of a few that do adhere to advise such as this. I will have to post this up at our locale SPCA and vet hospitals. Thank you.
So Sad.
I've never thought of this. Very sad that people would leave defenceless animals behind to fend for themselves. I will follow Scottish's lead and post this at our local shelter. I will also tell my folks and friends, who have rental properties, to check out the houses after a tenant has skipped.
Thanks for the heads up
I work for a rescue and yesterday was a sad day. A elderly lady passed away and had an elderly little poodle. When her kids came to pack her belongings up and sell the house they through the dog outside to fend for itself saying they didn't want it. A Neighbor seen this dog curled up on the porch crying and very cold, hadn't had food or water for atleast a few days. The neighbor called the people to see if they were coming back for it and they told her no. We have this dog and she is so sad mourning her owners death and being left all alone. Family members need to realize, its not the animals fault
tgslickers, thankfully there are rescues out there to help. Every neighbor that has eyes and ears can be helpful as long as they are willing to get involved. Without these neighbors who knows what would have happened to that poor dog.
I wonder if these idiots could be prosecuted. It would be wonderful to send a message, that the community you are in will not tolerate that behavior. If possible maybe your group could check into that,also send an email about it to the newspapers sometimes that will give them an idea for a news story and they will go with it. I have called news stations about dog cruelty cases and they have come out to investigate it.
Your story made me cry. Not only was the poor dog grieving, but left alone to do it! What kind of heartless people do these things?? Isn't it nice that they came to collect the "stuff" and sell her house for profit...but they couldn't be bothered with a helpless, innocent dog that probably gave their mother alot of joy and company when those same kids didn't have the TIME to do that!! How sad for them!! They will realize one day what they did...when no one comes to visit them!
God Bless You for taking care of her dog! You will get your kindness back 10 fold for caring!!

We will do that so everyone can be aware. Thank you so much for advice

Thank you , what you said is so true. It will come back to them. The dog is doing really good and we just found her a home with an older lady who just retired and travels a lot. She went out and bought her a few outfits and a lot of toys. They seem to get along very well. happy ending but so many animals aren't as lucky.

That is great to hear!! Maybe the elderly dog will feel more comfortable with someone a little older too! She will have time to spend with the dog and maybe he will get over his sad feelings a little quicker because of what you did!!
I hate to think of so many other dogs (animals) in the same situation, but 1 saved is 1 that doesn't suffer right?
Cheerrrzzz to ya!!
ps. I hugged my little girl extra long, and she got an extra treat outta the deal too, lol
