"Out of the Dark" - The Rescue of Bogie


 


Bogie was rescued after being semi-abandoned at a rental property.  We can't be sure how long he was there alone with his sister, a ten year old German Shepherd, but we know it was too long.   Not only were the dogs alone in a filthy dark house but they were in crates with no access to food or water.  The rescuer of both dogs was told by their owner that the scars on Bogie's sides are from being held  motionless in the crate. The owner claimed she was visiting them multiple times a day, but all evidence was to the contrary. Upon rescue they were found to be dehydrated and starving for food and attention.  Humans had done this to them but they were ready to forgive just not to feel alone.  Bogie was originally imported from Europe.  As a purebred English Bulldog, he fetched a pretty penny. He spent all of the four years of his short life being shipped off to dog shows.  During his time away he was mainly kept in crates.  Bogie is so loving.  He has kisses for everyone and is so excited to be living life to the fullest in his wonderful foster home, where he never has to be alone, not even for a minute.  The female shepherd was so immediately loved by her foster mom that they will be together forever.

We don't know what Bogie's vet bills will come to, but they will be high because we know he has skin and ear infections and there may be more illnesses that must be treated. As well, he will be neutered. When Bogie is well, we will choose a loving, respecting, and safe home for him.  Please help us help Bogie by making a donation here.

Bogie continues to get happier and healthier in his foster home.  He's been neutered, his infected ears are being treated and he is on a special diet for his skin conditions.
