Angie’s dog Hershey woke us up about 10:30 tonight and when I realized something was wrong and turned on the lamp I was shocked. He is a beagle mix, not a big dog and doesn’t roam. Something had torn him up really bad. We are in the sticks with a few other farms on this side of the mountain. Not sure who the perp could be.
He was bloody. Skin missing in places and deep punctures. He wouldn’t let me pick him up but I coaxed him into the kitchen to see how bad it was.
It was bad.
Belle the chihuahua had a wound on her back but it wasn’t too bad. Hershey was by now struggling to breathe. He rolled over and I saw that the deep wound on his chest was blowing air when he tried to take a breath. He was obviously in a lot of pain.
I looked up at Angie. She already knew.
It is never easy. It is a kindness.
You were a GOOD DOG Hershey.
