Help Pay For Gypsy's Vet Bills

Thursday, April 14, 2005

An elderly woman found " Gypsy " Monday morning on Wilkinson Boulevard

near Belmont. She thought the dog was dead, but when she looked

closely Gypsy was alive.

Gypsy was immediately taken to Eastridge Animal Hospital in

Gastonia. Doctors did not know if Gypsy was going to die. At first,

the elderly woman thought Gypsy was hit by a car, but doctors say

she was used in dog fighting, then left for dead.

Her ears have been cropped down to her head probably by her

old " owners " in the typical " pit bull " mutilated fashion.

WBTV News spoke to Gaston County Animal Control Thursday night. They

said it's difficult to charge someone with animal fighting, because

you need a witness or videotape to document the staged event.

Most are charged with animal cruelty.

In Gypsy's case, no one has even come forward to claim her

If you would like to donate money toward " Gypsy's " recovery please

It's always extremely sad to see such abuse in this world that we wittiness today! Whether it's human abuse or animal abuse! I don't quite understand how or why someone could be so cruel & not have a conscience about such a cruel act, because if the tables were turned on them, all of a sudden they have conscience in what's happening to them. People say, people like that are not all there, their mental & /or confused, high on drugs & waiting for their next fix, and maybe in their minds, they're suffering too. Regardless, of how much we suffer today there is no-excuse for abuse!!! My prayers will aways be for those who suffer, whether human or animal of any sort.

* Every dog must have a soul, somewhere deep insideWhere all his hurts and grievances are buried with his pride. Where he decides the good and bad, the wrong way from the right,And where his judgement carefully is hidden from our sight.

A dog must have a secret place, where every thought abides,A sort of close acquaintance that he trusts in and confides.

And when accused unjustly for himself, He cannot speak,Rebuked, He finds within his soul, the comfort he must seek.

He'll love, tho'he is unloved, and he'll serve tho'badly used,And one kind word will wipe away the times when he's abused.

Altho' his heart may break in two, his love will still be whole,Because God gave to every dog an understanding Soul!

For The Blood Is The Life. And Life = Soul 13. Anyone, whether an Israelite or a foreigner living among you, who goes hunting and kills an animal or bird of a kind permitted for food, must pour out the blood and cover it with dust, 14. for the blood is the life. That is why I told the people of Israel never to eat it, for the life of every bird and animal is its blood. Therefore, anyone who eats blood must be excommunicated.

(Leviticus 17:13-14)
