I find it hard to believe the pup could survive a month in a car, even with open windows. Little if any water? Couldn’t be that much McD’s in there.

They better stop assuming the car owners are the dog owners. I’m repeating several suggestions here in my post, including it could be stolen.

They need to be wary of the impound people, as well as any jerk who could access the car and stick their unwanted dog in there.

Sounds to me there are so many possible culprits here.

Often male dogs are referred to as “boy dogs” and female dogs are referred to as “girl dogs”. Being referred to as “this little girl” is not an attempt to equate the dog with a human. Similarly, when we called our “girl” dog “baby” we do not mean to imply she is a human baby.

There have been amazing stories of pets surviving in the unlikeliest of circumstances. Some that were locked in homes/apts. during Katrina where floodwater did not enter and there was no food/water for prolonged periods. Some very heartbreaking stories as well. Or even now, cases of abandoned animals surviving against amazing odds.

But, I hear ya. And, really, true, how much scraps from McDonald’s could be in there? It’s not like the pup had the reasoning to ration things, either. They may be speculating based on food wrappers found in the car, that the dog had access to scraps, when there may have only been wrappers to begin with.

They should find the owners and lock them in a car with a few McDonald Scraps for a month.

“This animal will have ‘issues’ related to food and water.

The prospective owner will need to be patient.”

Maybe not. This German shepherd went 35 days tied to a tree without food and water after being abandoned by the owner. He ate dirt and rocks for nourishment and drink from rain water.

He is a very healthy 95 pounds now, no medical or mental issues.

As Cesar would say, dogs live in the moment. Don’t linger on the idea the dog will have issues. Although a pup is more likely to have problems than a grown dog.

Really? it’s NOT a little girl?

I guess you’re NOT a human either.

Born to Conserve...Conserve what? Compassion, Feelings, how about your God given DUTY to protect the companion animals He made for man?

I pity any “little girl” or “little boy” of ANY species that crosses your path.
