Glad to hear he is in the best possible hands, Marie herself has him and despite the thousands of dogs she has seen over many years in pounds he has truly shocked her.

OMG the poor thing.

I wouldn’t even call that neglect, to get to that stage is abuse!

He looks like such a lovely dog, I hope he gets well soon.

Benji not looking too good, he is at the vets and has dermodectic mange which he would have had from a very young pup, as a result from him scratching he has a severe secondary skin infection. He is getting the best care possible but will need a lot of well wishes to get him right and it will be a long time before he begins to look like a dog again.

The poor darling, he’ll be in my thoughts and hope he is on the mend, and back to feeling himself, soon.

will say a prayer for him..the poor little mite. This picture is one of the worst I have seen of neglect! An appeal with this photo would raise much needed funds for DID..

This poor boy is improving daily.
Yesterday I brought him Chicken and potatoes and he dived in wagging his tail. He has started to eat treats as well. The day before he had ham,grated cheese and loved the probiotic youghurt on his nuts.
He has had another bath and allowed the vet to clean out his ears without a sedative which was great.He cannot be treated for mange yet as he is too weak and would not survive it.
At the moment we are consentrating on building him up and getting his immune system working again.
Thanks to Anne Tempo for making sure he got his second chance.
Will keep you updated.
