‘Hot and lethargic’ dogs found under tarp in US with surrender note

Authorities in the US state of Indiana, are asking for public help and cooperation after finding two dogs inside a cage under a tarp without water.
According to Police Department, the dogs were found in a street in the town of Connersville, about 120kms south-east of Indianapolis
They were “hot and lethargic” inside the cage due to heat and lack of air flow, officers said.

The animals had also defecated inside the crate and were confined in a very small area, where movement was nearly impossible, police said.

The owners left a note to “surrender” the dogs to whoever found them and left a bag of dog food and small amount of water in the cage, according to police.

The dogs, named Kilo and Rosco, were handed to a local animals shelter, despite it already being over capacity.

The Connersville Police Department asked anyone with interest in adopting the dogs or any other pets to contact the Fayette County Animal Shelter.

Fortunate Rescue: Deaf Dog Stung Countless Times by Bees Receives Lifesaving Help

As if being stung by thousands of bees wasn’t already bad enough, he was abandoned at a shelter after the incident by his family.

The deaf Pit Bull, subsequently dubbed Stinger by rescuers, came at the shelter covered in life-threatening blisters all over his body.

As they couldn’t treat a dog in this bad of condition, they planned on euthanizing him.

That’s when Carri Shipaila, who operates LuvnPupz rescue in Greater Grand Rapids, MI, stepped in to help. As soon as she heardaout Stinger, she hopped in her car and drove nearly an hour to take him up from the shelter.

Regrettably, his family declined to take him, so she immediately began to work to save Stinger’s life. They treated his stings, as well as a subsequent skin infection and sarcoptic mange.

Unfortunately, he wound up having Pemphigus, an autoimmune illness, which he will suffer for the rest of his life.

Because of the costs of his care, he will never be up for adoption, but he did find a loving forever home with a foster and will continue to receive care and therapy from LuvnPupz.

Stinger has come such a long way from when he first was dumped at the shelter. His painful blisters have finally healed and he has a gorgeous white coat.

He is such a lively, loving dog and is enjoying his new life in a loving home!
