"Hoax" suspicious thread asking for money was true

[Elizabeth13 10]

Just an update, Fabcakes posted a thread about a puppy in Romania wanting donations to help pay for treatment. The link was removed as it asked for money to be sent to an unknown party.

 

Just an update.. It was not a hoax.

You may recognise the picture if you saw this poor baby..

(Warning, image may be disturbing)

Her name is now Skinny, and she has come to a foster home in the UK under the care of Lurcher SOS

She is only 5 months old and weighs a tiddly 7.5kg but is in the best place possible.

Here are some pictures of her now in the UK:

Just thought I'd post, in case anyone wanted to know what happened. A wonderful success story for this little baby.

Thanks for the update. She's gorgeous

[Elizabeth13 10]

She's a little cutie isn't she?

She'll be in a home in no time, i am sure.

Aw she is beautiful! I never saw that thread, what was wrong with her? The first pic is shocking

[Elizabeth13 10]

I think it was a dog that tore her up in Romania.

She is such a pretty little thing, and the Vets in Romania have done such a good job stitching her up.

Thats the mark she has to show for her troubles now

Poor thing. How much stress has she been put under going through a dog attack, surgery, flying to a new country and rehoming! I hope it's all good for her from here bless her.

It is such a shame that she could not stay in her own country, all that extra stress after such a large operation.

 

I do sometimes wonder the reasoning behind importing mistreated dogs when the same happens here and for the same cost more lives could be saved.

Talking if fabcakes I haven't seen her around, is she ok?

Wow!what a good job they did!

Evei - Yes, my mum feels a similar way. She wonders why people are so worried about rehoming 'foreign' dogs when we have enough in the UK needing homes.

 

Apparently though, Skinny-Minnie is doing really well. She hasn't had any accidents in the home, and is enjoying her new lurcher friend.

She certainly is a very lucky doggy
