Helping Jonny Walker

**petfriend** · 07-23-2010, 03:20 PM

Hey Everyone,

Kev, do tell the media that JW would always wag his tail and look up at you with his big beautiful greenish brown eyes, play with humans and all the other dogs, and would actually smile if a dog could. He would lick you just to say "Hello, I'm Johnny, how are you? I showed up here in this neighborhood a little over 2 years ago because I was not welcomed where I came from. But all of you welcomed me with open paws and I love you. You took me in when there was nowhere else to go, kept me warm inside when the freezes and snow came, fed me and gave me water, bathed me, provided cool air in the heat. Thank you from the bottom of my paws. Also, HIGH PAWS, FEATHERS, CLAWS, NOSES, MOST OF ALL EYES (eyes from us to our humans) to the WORLD'S SUPPORT that I am still alive. No animal should have to go through neither abuse nor neglect."!!!!!

Just go done with WBRZ, Kristy Davis is going to air his story at 10pm. I can't began to say how many times I mentioned PetTalk and the Louisiana Veterinary Referral Center and Trish. She said they were going to mention the Johnny Walker Fund. I gave them Trish's card and stated how helpful she has been taking these Donations.
Trish are you ready

for more? They took a copy of the pics that Lauras Babies posted as well as the Video. They said they may have to edit the video if they air it. They want his breathing. Kristy said Jonny Walker's Story has to be the saddest thing she has ever heard. They didn't want the Graphic Photo because of kids watching the news.

**Catty1** · 07-23-2010, 05:31 PM

WOW...would that this could grow big enough to change the heart of nations!

I can only repeat thins others have said:

Laura:
- that card is wonderful!
- thanks for making the trip and representing PT!
- the photos and video are great to see.
- ya done good, raising da kid, Kev! LOL

JW Humans: good on you for pursuing all avenues!

Trish and colleagues: in some ways, you may think, just doing our jobs. But when we pet owners come in with a sick or injured pet, you folks do so much to reassure US as well as care for our pets. And with JW, you have really gone the extra mile. Reassuring donors who only know JW from here on PT, from cross posts on other forums and sites. Taking donations, phone calls and emails from all over, in addition to continuing to service the folks coming in, standing at the desk. THANK YOU.

JW: WE LOVE YA, BIG FELLA! Bet that first bowl of food tasted REALLY YUMMY, even though it was pureed, lol. Eating, wagging that tail, you keep on recovery, good boy.

Continued prayers for JW and his humans.
Prayers for the children referenced in the Press Release. May they get the treatment they need.

I am proud to be a member of this great community know as Pet Talk!
