Why?

From the Doberman Rescue of Nebraska. This poor guy needs a foster home. How could someone do this to a helpless creature?

Quote:

Once upon a time I had a home and a family, but the home was not a happy one. The man had a very bad temper. I tried really hard to please him but no matter how hard I tried it wasn’t good enough. I didn’t understand because I have always believed that people and dogs are friends but the man resented me. One day he got very very angry. I don’t know why. I’m a dog and I don’t tend to let things bother me. He went into a rage like a wild animal. I was scared and tried to hide but he found me anyway. When he did he took a baseball bat and struck me on the head.

I saw stars but not like the ones in the night sky. Everything went black and I thought I would wake up in Heaven but I did not die. I did not die because there is still that heart in me that believes there are very good people out there and my mission is to have a home with those kind of people and know true human love for the first time in my life.

My skull fracture healed without complications. The man got into big trouble for he did to me but while he was getting in big trouble I had to live in a kennel. I was finally released to a private rescue where they are working very hard to find me a home.

That's awful, how could anyone hurt such a sweet dog. Look at that happy boy!

With the help of the rescue he will find a happy forever home. He surely deserves it. I don't know of any dobe rescue that does not highly screen potential adopters. He is a total cutie and just absolutely beautiful! and I'm sure he will find a home very soon.

*sob* How heartbreaking... And even after that, he looks like such a happy boy...

I'm in tears right now. What a sick SOB! I'm sure he'll get his with a baseball bat. I wish I could save all of these poor babies. I'm sure there is an angel out there looking for this sweet dobe.

Thats a powerful story. I am a strong believer in Karma and that guy is going to get whats coming to him. No dog; no matter what the problem should ever be hit or abused, its sick and disturbing. Id like to meet that guy....I think congress should have a list of people that have been known to abuse animals and convict them for a serious crime. I wish I never read this post...ruined my day

Not knowing of things like this does not make them go away. Only by realizing what is happening even the bad things can people who do care step in and help or possibly prevent stories like this.

And man calls himself the superior life form ppffffttt

It is terrible that people can do things like this. Heartbreaking is right. I am confident that they will find him a wonderful home. They are an awesome rescue celebrating 25 yrs of service and doing the breed justice.

I know this happens all the time, but it just makes me sick to my stomach!! I want to take a baseball bat to that guys head.
