My apologies if I was mistaken. It is indeed sad to see an animal mistreated like this. In my defense, I will say that the tone of the piece posted was heavy on the melodrama and light on the details of the situation. That gave it the flavor of a piece of fiction. Not sure if you are acquainted with the person who wrote it, but I think a few here got that same impression. That seems counterproductive to the mission of your organization.
I hope the dog recovers and has a good life with owners who appreciate him.

No problem here. The whole story was not disclosed here, it was actually worse than described.

1. Dog was diagnosed with a thyroid condition that can be taken care of with medication and they declined to do so. The family lived in a $3 million Newport Coast home so they could have afforded it.

2. Louie was fed in tin foil pans so they did not have to handle hos dog bowls.

3. The family refused to take him to the animal hospital in their own car, they had their maid take him in her car.

4. The dog’s hair was so matted the groomer could not even see hat happened to his skin.
