Handsome boy. There is probably a special person out there who could help this disabled boy. I would think that someone who is at home a lot would be perfect to take him. He looks very alert. I hope he makes it through this.

Maybe we should all donate to the humane society- they are the ones who end up helping these pour animals. Maybe they could start a fund that we could donate to that would be used to pay local Vets for such emergency care. I find it sad to let any animal suffer for any reason shame on that Vet. I would like to know who it was as I use a Brewton Vet would sure be disappointed to find out it was mine.

Please let’s focus on catching the person who inflicted the injuries which caused this dog to become PARALYZED, instead of bashing the vet. This is a FELONY crime in FL and the abandonment would be criminal misdemeanor. Animal abusers often go on to harm vulnerable citizens; children, elderly, spouses, etc. Somebody knows something…please speak up. Call Gulf Coast Crime Stoppers 850-433-STOP or toll free 877-433-TIPS.

I too had a bad experience with a big Nine Mile Road vet.
I had found a kitten in the middle of the road dazed and bleeding. I took it there only because it was early and they were the only ones open. I didn’t have my credit card on me and had to get to work. I told them I would call with my credit card number as soon as I got to work (long story). The girl there was VERY ugly and rude. She told me if you don’t call soon we will just euthenize the cat. I did call and turns out the kitten was just stunned. I paid them a lot and took the cat home. I realize they are not a charity but the callouseness and rudeness was uncalled for. I haven’t been to that vet since.

All you people bashing the vet had better take a look in the mirror if you didn’t donate. What’s the difference.

@ Wanda: Any funds left over would be put to wise use for other such cases I’m sure.

This is sad!!! And I once went to the vet on 9mile and they did the same thing to me!! I think our tax money should go to help animals like this instead of using it toward the criminals to feed them and cool them and hell they even have a TV what a shame!!! They have it better than some out here that work and struggle to raise a family…I hate it when I hear about animal abuse these poor animals can defend there self

Shame on that Vet!!
I know of another Vet’s office who has NO sympathy for a hurt pet, I once took a pet of mine to them (9 mile road) hint, hint, and because I didn’t have a certain amount of money to give them when I got there, they refused to treat my very sick dog

That same vets office (9 mile road) turned my friend away who took her dog in who had been hit by a car and was in severe pain and because she didn’t have the funds they wanted, they turned her away, and the poor dog’s eyeball was hanging out.
Talk about CRUEL

BUT, for years I have used the Cantonment Animal Companion. (Dr. Winley) is the greatest, has a big heart, cares for your animals and will help you anyway he can.
I wouldn’t never consider using any Vet other than Cantonment

I hope the dog will be allright and can be saved. I know my vet would have treated him, no problem. I don’t know who this vet is who refused to help but I hope people stop using him/her.
