CVHS was recently called out on a report of an abandoned dog in our jurisdiction. What we found when we arrived on the scene was worse than we could have imagined. Trapped inside a confined crate was a young dog that had been starving without food or water for an unknown amount of time. He had been living in his own excrement, barely able to move in the small space. CVHS quickly rushed him back to the shelter where he was given the name “Sully”. He had skin sores from the filth and the fur on his stomach and legs are STILL stained from the feces and urine - even after multiple baths.
This is happening in OUR community. Someone HERE did this to Sully. They gave him no chance to even fend for himself by keeping him locked inside that terrible crate. We will never understand how people can do this to animals. Especially a dog as sweet and loving as Sully. Even though he was little more than a walking skeleton, the first thing he wanted when he was released from his crate, even more than food or water, was the comforting touch and love of our shelter staff.CVHS is seeking information about Sully's owner. They are asking for anyone with any information to contact them at 319-362-6288.
