<DIV><SPAN class=953260506-18042008><FONT face=Arial size=2>I immediately bathed
this lady.. she smelled of months old cow pie, urine, feces, etc.. and when I
was drying her off .... I made the discovery that my simple green handled nail
clippers had no chance in helping this girl.. she will have to be unconscious,
in surgery to remove the nail and its quick back to a point... because to repair
this damage, the dog must not be conscious.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

that page says.. don't misunderstand my words... were it within my power, were
it that I knew who let this happen to this poor sweet elderly lady ... I would
not be so reserved as I posted on that page, slow tortuous death is too good for
a human so despicable to allow this to happen.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

full pictures of her yet ... its too dark to get them and I wanted to get them
when she has natural light to show her beauty. She's definitely a senor,
but how much so I don't know.. my thoughts.. 6 months 6 years.. doesn't matter
how much time she has left on this earth .. she's finally into a breed specific
rescue and will get the care, love, and respect she
deserves.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
