Late!...But not too late for help to finally come to these two...

 

What a life for a dog...To be treated as follows for years.  They were tied to a short chains with very little room to move, they had to wade in their own wastes, they were starved to skeletal size, they received almost no water and absolutely no love.   They did not know what going for a walk was, never received a good word or petting, never received enough food or water.  It was just simply pure existence.  They persevered in filth and misery year after year.

 

The Animal Welfare folks (PAG) offered to help many times, but was always refused by the owner.  By law, the Animal Protectors had their hands tied.  Only now, since the owner has been hospitalized, can PAG take the initiative.  The regulatory hurdles have been officially breached and the door has been opened for these tortured animals.

 

 At the moment, these two do not even have names.  The one we are temporarily calling "Weiss" shook and peed all over from fear as the Animal Protectors approached him.  What had he expected?  Being hit or otherwise physically mistreated as had been the case in the past?  Was there ever a different experience with humans?  We believe not.

 

The one we are now temporarily calling "Braun" walked right up to these new humans despite all of his bad experiences which would indicate that he is open to find the good in people.

 

Today they have a warm place to sleep and are able to move around.  They walk well on a line with their rescuers.  They are now receiving enough food and water and best of all, love, care and respect for the creatures they are.  They are learning late, but not too late that all humans are not bad.

 

They will see the Vet soon and receive a medical check-up and then be allowed to recover slowly from their maltreatment.  We estimate their ages to be around six to seven years and the will have  quite a few years remaining for a good dog's life.  The two are now under foster care with other dogs and cats and can start their new lives.  They will also be given names soon.

 

On La Gomera, there is no Animal Shelter, but we wish to spare them having to endure a Shelter on Tenerife.  We are very hopeful that there are people out there that care and are possibly ready to offer these two good. loving homes.

 

Today, they appear to be very thankful for there liberation from their misery and we are hopeful that they will soon recover and bad experiences will be soon be put behind them.  They deserve our care and respect.  We believe in that "Good End" and we shall do our best to help these two find the "Good" wherever it is hidden.
