A story has been on our local news these past few days. A dog was found who was beaten, tortured, kicked repeatedly and her face set on fire. This poor dog is in pretty bad shape and may need a leg amputated.
Chase Utley plays baseball for the Philadelphia Phillies major league baseball team. He and his wife were at the shelter when this poor dog was brought in. Mr. & Mrs. Utley told the shelter that they will pay for any and all veterinary costs as well as whatever rehabilitation this poor dog might need...they said they'll cover the entire cost of giving this dog a chance for a full recovery and a second chance for the life that every pet deserves!
Lately the horror stories about Michael Vick's involvement with dog fighting has dominated the news. (may he rot in jail for what he did!). How wonderful it was to learn of what the Utley's are doing for a frightened and horribly abused animal!
To Mr. & Mrs. Utley, thank you and bless both of you for stepping up to the plate here. Because of your generosity and compassion, this beautiful dog will not only have a second chance at life but she's sure to become some lucky person's devoted and loyal companion. And Mr. Utley, even though I'm a Yankees fan I will be buying one of your jerseys as my way to thank you for your extraordinary gift to this poor dog!
PT friends, please join me in praying for the dog's complete and rapid recovery and from there finding her way to a loving, caring and safe furever home!
