Injured and abandoned during the worst snow Virginia has seen in years…

Follow Herbie’s progress on his blog: http://healingherbie.blogspot.com!

Herbie was brought into a shelter in Virginia one night not long ago.  Snow was everywhere and it was literally freezing out.   A normal dog’s temperature is 100 degrees, Herbie’s temperature was 94.

A local resident recognized Herbie as a neighborhood dog - whose owners had moved three months ago! Abandoned by his family, he survived alone on the streets for three months.  His time on the street was not without peril though, as it was clear to the shelter staff that Herbie had been attacked – the vet thinks by a pack of dogs.   He may never use his right leg again.

The shelter asked Lucky Dog for help in nursing poor Herbie back to health – but we can’t do it without you!  Herbie deserves a chance to know a better life, to know love, warmth and comfort.  He deserves a chance to know a life with a family that won’t abandon him.

Contact us at info@luckydoganimalrescue.org or Donate today to give Herbie the help, and the fresh start, he desperately needs.

Do you love dogs but can’t commit to adoption?  Do you want to help save lives and give back or just be a part of a fun and growing rescue group?  We’re looking for short term commitments from local volunteers so that we are able to get more dogs out of the horrible situations they are in right now.  So many are being turned in because of the recession – those pups have NO chance of survival beyond a rescue group committing to them.  Rescue groups like ours cannot commit without a place for the pups to go because we don’t have the spare funds to pay for them.   So won’t you consider opening your home for a few weeks to save the lives of some deserving dogs?  You’ll never regret it, we promise!
