Matt

03/15/2007 This poor poor boy was found as a stray. His stray hold was up today so we could finally get him out of the shelter and to a Vet. His tail is badly infected , looks like a rubber band was put around it at one point. He was a solid mat of hair , we tried to shave him , but he won't let you touch his hind-end at all. When he is wet you can see that he is emaciated and his spine is curved to the side. He also can not bare weight on one of his hind legs. This may be from the pain, or there may be something wrong with it. We won't know until we hit the Vet fist thing in the morning.

03/16/2007 Here I thought I was safe and I was dumped again... but this time it was at the Puppy Doctors office. I was scared but I needed to go in and get taken care of. My Vets Office name is Mr. Matt , but need a better one unless that sticks.

I was sheared naked so no more Mats , there were sores under all my mats. I have been x-rayed and my leg is old break never treated and healed wrong and my hip is out of socket. At one time there was something wrapped around my tail , either hair or a rubber band.

My anal glands are (were Doc fixed them) HUGE , FULL and INFECTED.... this was why I would not let you touch my rear end. And I have a small cataract on my left eye , so I have a blind spot.

03/17/2007 I was sprung from the Hospital today. And I am home now, excuse me for being "naked". These sores on me are TICK Bites that got infected under all that matted hair. It is possible to fix my leg, if they took the femoral head off my leg. Mom is begging people for money to help pay for this since I don't have a job. She says I am only 5 years old and we need to get this done so I can run and play again.

03/19/2007 Mom spoke to the Doggy Doctor today and he said I had to wait a few weeks until I was stronger before he would fix my leg. And I need to pay him 400 bones to do it. Do you have an extra one for me? One more thing I was NOT a stray I was dumped, there is no way I could run away from home the way my leg is now. I just lay around allot and walk when I have to.

03/25/2007 Mom got the bill today for my first emergency trip to see the Doggy Doctor. It was $382.00 for all the X-rays and doggy doctoring I got that day.

03/30/2007 Mom has discovered that I have a puppymill tattoo in my ear. #83 was my name.
