    **Update On Buckley, We will loose him See last post

    This is a two part post. One asking for prayers for my lab, Buckley. I have posted on Dog of the day, but usually I am here on the cat side. Short version of Buckley's story is that he was attacked by one of our other dogs and had horrific injuries especially to his chest. His chest became very necrotic and he has lost the vast majority of his chest. Our vet attempted Tuesday to reconnect some of his chest, but due to his injuries and his excessive skin not in the right location, she was limited in what she can do. She told me today that she can do no more and will refer him to a vetinary teaching school to see if there is anything that can be done, but is not very confident as the area than would need skin grafting is way to large. We already lost our other dog because of this and don't want to loose Buckley also. If you would please pray for him that if they can do something we can afford it (it has already stretched our finances as he has been in the vet for almost a month and the teaching hospital would be very high). The second part of the post is showing you Jasmine, my orange rescue from my colony. Look what this skinny runt grew into. Sorry it is not the best picture but I wanted show her along with Buckley. Last year I did up dates, and Buckley decided he was her appointed guardian and still is. Enjoy those pictures and thanks guys for being there. Momtomany of the Dunn gang. If you want to understand Buckley's situation better, it is under Dog general marked with Update on Buckley.

    Wow, how old is Jasmine? She's a beauty! What a difference you made in her life! As I've said in the other thread, I am hoping beyond hope that Buckley makes it through this. If there is something that can be done to help him, I'd be willing to contribute to his bill. Please keep us posted.

    Time helps the sadness subside, but the memories remain forever.

    Thank you for your kind prayers for Buckley. Believe me, my husband and I are hoping for a Christmas miracle.

    Jasmine is a little over a year hold. We call her "Sis Kitty" most of time. She has the most wonderful personailty. Because I bottle feed her initially, she loves getting on mine or daddy's chest and makea biscuits and pretends to nurse. She is love bug one minute and a she devil the next. She plays with balls and bread ties for hours on end. She loves to play and then will turn into an attack kitty. I wish I could have got a picture of her jumping from the dining room table to a mirror with a potted plant looking box, laying in it looking out just as happy as she could be. Of the thirteen in our house, she is the only orange kitty I have. She and the last rescue before her, TJ, also play endlessly in the house.

    Again thank you and God's favor on all Pet Talkers.

    I have no $$ to give...but maybe consider going to the media about this brutal attack. Or your vet might. Even a short spot on a newscast might bring in some donations.

    You and Buckley deserve this.

    Do you still have Bono?

    What a terrifying thing to happen, and a long and heartbreaking ordeal. Prayers!
