Catawba County, NC-- STILL IN NEED--NOBODY HAS SHOWN INTEREST, 5 babies from cruelty/neglect home---need rescue placement

This will break your heart. These 5 poor little dogs have endured a life of misery. Please help rescue them asap, they only have one more day, no one has shown any interest yet.
Dogs taken from neglect/ cruelty situation…. All of these dogs came from the same residence. They need rescue placement by 11/19. Contact:JenniferSigmon@CatawbaCountyNC.gov

ROCCO:  A169257 - UNALTERED MALE , BLACK LABRADOR RETR MIX, 1Y 6M

Rocco and Tippy were in a dog lot that had no door or way into the pen. They were only being thrown food through the fence. They were not being fed regularly were skinny when we got them. They are very sweet but a little shy at first. Rocco weighs about 35-40 and Tippy weighs about 30-35.
TIPPY: A169259 - UNALTERED MALE , BLACK LABRADOR RETR MIX, 1Y 6M 


CRUCO:  A169260 - UNALTERED MALE , BROWN LABRADOR RETR and BEAGLE, 2Y
Cruco and Chico were in each tied out by ropes with no shelter. They are very skinny. They are shy at first meeting. Cruco is more shy than Chico. We do not believe there was a lot of interaction between the owners and the dogs on the property due to the lack of care. They were not being fed with any regularity. Cruco weighs about 30 and Tippy weighs about 30.

CHICO:  A169262 - UNALTERED MALE , BLACK LABRADOR RETR and BEAGLE, 4Y


 
MICKEY: A169261 - UNALTERED MALE , BLACK LABRADOR RETR and BEAGLE, 1Y

Poor Mickey was the worst of the bunch. He would not stand up and was extremely weak. When he got to the vet he had a temperature of 98.9 and weighed only 25 lbs. He was severely anemic. The vet stated that due to these factors that had we not stepped in, he would have not survived the night outside in the cold. He is making slow progress but is continuing to improve. He is good with other dogs. He is a quiet boy that will need time to recover from his physical neglect and emotional neglect. Poor thing acts as if he has not had any positive interactions with his “family”….basically laid at the end of a chain waiting on food. L
