Please Be Advised, these pictures are graphic and painful to view.
Gypsy had her leg amputated today and she is fighting for her life. Thanks to the skilled surgeons,
Dr. McLean and Dr. Lowery at Eastridge Animal Hospital in Gastonia, and all the wonderful and loving vet techs at Eastridge who
just go in and hold her paw or pat her or speak sweet kind words. It's amazing, but Cindy said she
wagged her tail after surgery. Cindy and Dr. McLean say she hasn't given up and is fighting to
stay with us.
Her face is literally falling off, rotten skin, she has lost her lips and may lose her nose. Dr.
McLean (if we have enough money and she makes it) will be able to do some cosmetic surgery. Her
teeth showing is that her lips are rotten and gone. Imagine cutting off an ice pick to about
two inches long and stabbing a dog in the head over and over and over. The skin is rotting
beneath the wounds and it looks horrible.
First, we are putting these horrible pictures out so that everyone who loves a pet can pray for her,
contribute, and hope the best. Secondly, we are in need of donations for this bill. And probably the
most important, is that Gypsy puts a face on the gambling rings using dogs, dog fighting, dog baiting,
the worse of what we must begin fighting and standing against.
She is a sweet girl, and a strong heart and I'm sure she has a forgiving nature.
Beware putting a dog in an advertisement "Free to a good home." Dog fighters will send a "front person"
sometimes to get a pet to use to bait fighting dogs. And secondly, watch your pets, it's common to have
them stolen for baiting.
