    Update on abuse case...

    Check out our local paper today:
    http://www.whitehorsestar.com/
    The front page is about the dog who was dragged a couple weeks ago. Animal control knew Nitron's original owner. There had been several noise complaints--he's young and likes to bark. He was given away not long before this crap happened! They let the first owner know what had happened and he immediately went and got his dog back! We've exchanged information through the AC officer and it sounds like Nitron will be safe, happy and loved. The people really never wanted to give him away in the first place, but the fines for noise violations are huge here--more than the **^%&* who dragged him has to pay! Anyway, they are committed to working with him now, training him and keeping him! I know it probably doesn't sound ideal to many people, but Nitron seemed like a really lovely dog. Someone had obviously taken good care of him at some point--he was friendly, sweet, well socialized despite the lousy conditions I met him under. I am so freaking relieved!

    Things are Lookin UP for Nitron!

    Did you pass the word that you're willing to re-home Nitron to Tamara's Refuge
    and Dog Barkin Yard if he needs a place to *bark*?

    That's wonderful Tamara! Just look at that sweet face. Wow seeing him makes me angry all over again! Poor baby. It must feel wonderful to be a part of catching and ending his abuse.

    Absolutely! I told him I'd take him in a heartbeat if it doesn't work out! I think Jeff, the other witness, would too.

    I'm glad you posted a follow up, I've been wondering what happened to him. Glad to hear he's in a safe place & is loved. Wouldn't have surprised me at all to see that you added a 24th dog! You've been a "guardian angel" to so many endangered huskies (and kitties)!

    That sweet face speaks volumes. What a happy ending to a horrible story.

    I hope that woman has the book thrown at her.........and why isn't HER picture in the paper? (sorry, she really should never be allowed to have another animal until she gets her act together).

    That's so great to hear he's back at his original home.. Nitro must be so happy to be home.. his owner must be so happy for him to be there.. and this is all thanks to you, Glacier!
