Just DESPICABLE' Tragedy as 'skeleton' bulldog left to die under a bush

Blidworth, Nottinghamshire

An emaciated one year old bulldog was found under a bush in the countryside by a passerby. They then called the RSPCA and stayed with the bulldog until they arrived.

The puppy was so emaciated it could barely stand and his face was covered with mange

Unfortunately they were too late and they had to put the poor bulldog to sleep to end his suffering.

RSPCA Inspector David McAdam expressed that the bulldog was enduring some of the most severe health issues he had ever encountered.

As the charity unveiled a set of images captured shortly before the dog was euthanized, the inspector detailed the dog's appalling state of health.

"This was a despicable act,” said Inspector McAdam. “The poor dog was left in the middle of nowhere in such a state and was totally helpless and defenceless. 

“His condition was nothing short of appalling and the vet said he had been in a suffering state for at least two months. 

“He was unable to stand up he was so weak. He had a chronic skin condition and was severely underweight, had cherry eyes - where the eyelid swells up - and a prolapsed penis caused by infection.

“It is so upsetting to think of the pain he must have endured during those months which was completely unnecessary."

 There are never excuses for abandoning an animal, says the RSPCA. Its experts are always available to provide help and adviice.

"I am just grateful that a kind member of the public found the dog and showed him some compassion in his last hours,” added Inspector McAdam.

The animal welfare charity is appealing for information about the dog who was found in Ricket Lane, Blidworth, on September 30 at around 3.30pm. Anyone with information should contact the charity’s appeal line on 0300 123 8018.

Uk Shelter Takes Legal Action To Get Adopted Puppy Back After Owner Was Caught Trying To Resell At A Markup

Picture of Pine Green from the WAGS shelter

An animal shelter in Westminster UK is seeking the return of a French bulldog that was adopted for $500 but then put online for sale at $1,450.   
 
The dogs name "Pine Green" was seized from a suspected breeder in November along with 78 other dogs.

When the shelter found out he had showed up on Craigslist for the large markup they decide to get legal help to get the frenchie back.

The people at WAGS shelter just want to make sure the pups go to homes  with people who would love them and care for them like any good dog deserves. Despite the prices the shelter was charging for special adoption fees of $500 for adults and $800 for puppies, the shelter received nearly 4,000 applications for the 78 dogs, and why wouldn’t they? 

Usually the French and English bulldog breeds go for thousands of dollars on the open market.

WAGS issued this statement on their Facebook page "No attempt was made to us to return the dog if it wasn’t working out! This is a despicable act and the entire WAGS team is just disgusted … .” The Craigslist ad, which the shelter managed to get removed, asked $1,450 for the dog, which was described as “cute, kid-friendly (and) social.”

Apparently there are still 6 English and French bulldogs that are still available for adoption.
 
You can learn more about the puppies and WAGS here checking out their photos on WAGS Facebook page or you can email cortney@wagspetadoption.org to request an application.

It makes me wonder though how often this happens. Not just with bulldogs but with all animals.

Bulldog Breeder With An Arm Ripped By His Own Dogs Off Is Being Charged

A bulldog that had been living outdoors amidst unsanitary conditions, surrounded by her own waste, has finally found a forever home, all thanks to the RSPCA.

Betty, a two-year-old bulldog with white and brown fur, was discovered in a dire situation by East Cambridgeshire Police and the RSPCA. She had been enduring the squalor of a dirty outbuilding along with two other dogs on the property in Cambridgeshire back in March of the previous year.

Betty, her bulldog companion Wilma, and a terrier cross named Gabbi were rescued and taken to the RSPCA Blackberry Farm Centre in Aylesbury. There, they received the care and attention they desperately needed before eventually finding new homes.

Sam Chisholme, a 43-year-old resident of Linslade in Bedfordshire, welcomed Betty into his home in March of this year. He shared, "She now enjoys a significantly improved life, spending most of her time going on walks and enjoying quality time with me, my three-year-old bulldog Riley, and my son Callum. Betty is now in excellent health and has a remarkably calm demeanor. You would never guess from her temperament that she had endured such a traumatic experience. She is a wonderful companion to have around."

Mr. Chisholme, an engineer, has always had a fondness for bulldogs and has had them as part of his family for the past two decades. He mentioned, "She adores her walks and, for a bulldog, she is quite active and healthy. In comparison, Riley gets tired much more quickly than she does."

Betty, now two and a half years old, has embraced her new home and companions, a far cry from her previous living conditions where she was confined to a six-foot by three-foot outbuilding and forced to eat near a pile of her own waste.

RSPCA Inspector Alex Coghlan, who was responsible for rescuing the dogs from the Cambridgeshire property, expressed, "It's heartwarming to witness these dogs find loving homes, especially Betty, who was in such a distressing state when we found her. Witnessing her receive the happy ending she deserves is truly rewarding."

Both Wilma and Gabbi have also been successfully rehomed by the RSPCA. Wilma now relishes her new life and has a fellow bulldog companion, while Gabbi was joyfully adopted by an RSPCA volunteer.
