NUEVA UPDATE - PREGNANT DOG LEFT AT OUR BLDG THIS MORNING
It is was very heavy heart, that I have sad news to share. Nueva just "coded" and all attempts to save her were not successful. The medical team then tried to save her TEN puppies, but it was too late as well. But during this morning's ordeal, we learned more about her story.
I was contacted by another vet clinic. Apparently her owner took her to the vet yesterday because she was in distress over going into labor. The medical team determined that she had "dystocia" which is a difficult birth situation. The owners did not want to pay the vet bill so they left with her.
And before everyone gets on the "have the owners charged" train....have you ever been to or lived in New Orleans? It's the murder capital of the country with a police dept at half capacity. Animal neglect is not even on their radar when they have multiple murders a day to content with. Just keeping it real.
The rest is obvious. She was left at our building in New Orleans, in labor with 10 puppies, in the pouring rain and unable to walk and barely breathing. The owners are 100% at fault for this. So for those of you who make comments like "we don't know what the owners were going thru"...get your head out of the damn sand!
We thank everyone for making a donation and all the funds will be applied to Nueva and her unborn family's medical bills. We didn't even know this dog but in a matter of hours, our emotions run high.
But I think the anger overrides the sadness in knowing that someone's greed killed this dog. She suffered in hours just so that you could make money off of her puppies and in the end, she gave her life for them and you! And yet...you gave her nothing. Not even the dignity of paying her vet bills so that she could live.
For fear of not wanting to be put in FB jail, I will keep my mouth shut. But tonight, I hope you see me in your worst nightmare.
