Tuesday morning, a dog left in a hot parked car in the lot of the zoo had to be rescued. There was a small bowl of water left in the car for the dog. This is all according to Jeane Jae, an HSMO (Humane Society of Missouri) spokesperson.
No one knows how long the canine was in the water, but if it wasn't for Deputy Frye who was patrolling the area, the four-legged friend wouldn't be alive today.
“We whistled, called and it actually came to us,” Officer Alvarez said. “It was actually very happy to see somebody because remember, it came from the Bronx.”
"At one point my dog was coming down one of those large rubble piles and she put her front paw into a large glass window. The glass shattered, and her foot went through," said Armstrong.
“I’m not worried about the vehicle,” Larry Burgoon said. “I’m worried about getting Miles back. The car, the contents of the car, they’re replaceable. Miles is not.”
“I made arrangements for the dogs. I made arrangements to sell the house and kind of got everything cleaned up before I wasn’t able to do it anymore. I was getting so sick, the original doctors I was working with said, ‘Nothing more can be done.’”
Discriminating against dog breeds is just as bad, if not worse, as human racism, because dogs cannot speak up for themselves, and all breed bans do is keep loyal and loving dogs in the hands of people who turn them into monsters.
