What to do.
Some fine Friendly Frontier citizen (probably from Abilene) dumped a dog across the road from my property north of Abilene. This poor dog has been yelping for the past two days, hardly able to move. I was hoping it would somehow "go away."
Today I had enough, and went to take a look. It was trapped in heavy brush, cactus, and mesquite, behind my neighbor's tight barbed wire fence (my neighbor does not own the dog, doesn't know about it, and not around lately). After finally getting to the animal, I saw that it was weak, starving (eating grass), needing water, and was quite blind. It must have blindly just crawled there from the road. I could not have moved it out due to the heavy brush. The dog couldn't see me, but alerted to my sounds.
I called several Jones County offices and they couldn't help. How nice.
What would YOU do? What should I have done? This is very depressing, and I'm very angry at the depraved person who dumped it.
