Well she FINALLY called me. The pup pulled through the night but they say she is still not out of the woods. The vet told her that if she does make she will most likely come out of this with completely no use of her back legs and minor brain damage. They said she seems to be about 12 weeks old and he told her that if she makes it she could adapt to the way of life she would have to live.

I don't know too much else right now other then Anna is already bonded to this dog and she is not a dog person. She said that if the puppy makes it she plans to keep her and work with her on her problems. But like I said she is still not out of the woods and on top of her injuries from the car hitting her she has old injuries that healed possibly from being beaten. Still keep on thinking about her.

BTW their calling her D.O. (Drop Off) for her name for now but Anna wants me to think of names because she claims she is horrible at names. She told me she is a brindle female Daschund. She doesent want to name her hope or faith though.

I hope the pup pulls through.. I know how it feels when an animal gets hurt like that.. My dog died when iwas a little girl.. by two guys that were driving drunk and they thought it would be cool to hit her.. She died on the way to the hospital and what was worse she was pregnant with pups.. I cried and there on I thought to myself i will pick up every dog off the street that needs protection and i have.. I have 5 of my own and i just gave two pups away..

I'm glad she made it through the night, I love SummerRiots name suggestion.

NINA -Meaning "fire" in Quechua (Native American). She has the will and 'fire' to live.

a good friend got a puppy last week although i had warned him that it would take a lot of his time and would need a lot of caring. i told him clearly it will pee eveywhere and he was like he doesnt mind. he got the puppy and 1 day later he threw it out because it was peeing everywhere! He just left it near his building on the streets.. just like that.

I am not talking to him anymore.

Poor Pup.......Any updates?

And the reason some have to scroll sideways is because their moniter might be a little smaller than others. And some of the wider signatures cause that.
(I don't have to scroll sideways though)

Well her name is Dose (Like Uno, Dose) meaning 2 because now she only has two legs her two front legs. So I guess anyone can guess her back legs were so screwed up and crushed there was no point in leaving them there. The vet told Anna that Dose is out of the woods but she still has alot of hurdles of over come. She does have slight brain damage which might make learning how to use her new wheels difficult. Anna has not yet ben able to take Dose home because of her condition. They are hoping she takes to her wheels well and that she will grow into a fairly normal dog.

I am very proud of my friend Anna. Going from a woman who was NOT a dog person at all to falling completely in love with this little disabled Daschund puppy. It says alot about her that she has already put so much time and money into little Dose.

What the hell goes through someone's mind when they just abandon a animal like that? :mad:
I would like to know the same thing! It just shows how heartless people are. And how they can just cast animals off as just things that can be tossed out the car door like trash :mad: .
