  1. Thanks for taking care of Lucy and that growth on her face. She looks tired but I am sure happy. Hope they make her owner pay for all care until she is adopted by a family who will cherish her. Throw the book at this disgusting owner.

  2. THANK YOU!!! all of you that “Ratted” the total Bastard that treated a helpless little dog like Luck like a maggot !!! The POS needs to be held accountable for the fear, pain, suffering and the expenses to assist this girl thru the medical issues he neglected to provide her…
