HOPE

Hopeful has been badly abused and scarred.. can you help?

This sweet dog is the older sister of FAITH. They were both rescued from a 72 year old woman in Greenville, SC. Animal Control went out and took Hopeful away from the owner after her sister had been brought in earlier in the week. This person is under investigation for cruelty to animals.

She was originally called HOPE but since we already have three HOPES we decided it was better to call her HOPEFUL. She has scars all over her body and open sores. She appears to have been used as a bait dog. If she wasn’t, then she was severely tortured by someone. The gash on her neck does not appear to be from a collar but looks more like where she was possibly whipped with a leather strap and on impact it tore her skin. Her teeth are cracked and missing and her SPIRIT is completely broken.

This is one of the saddest dogs we have ever seen. Aside from all of her injuries, what someone has done to her soul is inexcusable. She is emaciated, loaded with parasites and is high heartworm positive. Someone never gave this poor dog a chance, much less love. She will be at the veterinary hospital being treated for the next two to three weeks and then will be transferred to a rehabilitation facility to help her come out of her shell. She is so scared and submissive that all she will do is crawl in a corner and look at the wall. She is petrified of people. She needs lots of medical care and even more TLC and that is exactly what she is going to get from us
