The dog I found @ the dumpster.  She was discovered Monday 22,2009.  Police would not investigate, so I did, and what I found was shocking.  I named her

Sweetie, the dog I found @ the dumpster

Target:
Everyone in the City of Austin, Texas
Sponsored by: 

We have all been given life, humans and non-humans.  Our hope is to die and be buried with dignity.  Well, this weekend this sweet dog did not get that dignity.  She was dumped off at a dumpster(not in the dumpster), she was put in 2-3 heavy duty trash bags and wrapped in a heavy blue blanket; not sure if she was taped up or she died of other causes.  She was dumped off at County Home Learning Center N183/ Balconies Drive(near Balconies Country Club). Was she abused?  Did anyone love her?  If someone did love her why did they dump her like trash, wait, they did not even take the time to put her in the dumpster.  I called AC and the police, unfortunately no-one could/would do anything for this poor dog.  Every entity had an excuse/reason.  This is sad for Travis County.  May this precious dog rest in peace.



The Detective is dismissing this case as just a decomposing animal.  She feels the someone's dog died over the weekend and they did not have any where to take her and Animal Control would not pick-up until Monday; so they dumpted her at the dumpster.  I don't feel that is case, I think there is more to this and the detective is just passing this poor dog by.

In the sweltering heat, Vicky McCauley says she stumbled upon the remains of an animal between a Goodwill store and the Balcones Country Club in northwest Austin earlier this week. As temperatures were soaring past 100, McCauley says someone brutalized the dog, cutting it open and leaving it for dead not far from a dumpster along Balcones Club Drive.

"Back in this area. I would be concerned, because if this is a dog they did that to, what about a child," McCauley said Friday night. "What if it was your pet?"

McCauley says she contacted Austin Police and was not satisfied with the amount of investigation being conducted. She is now trying to alert neighbors and anyone else who will listen.

"This is not okay. I think that Austin, Texas really needs to wake up. People are going 'oh, it won't happen to me', or 'it won't happen in my neighborhood'. It happens," McCauley says.

The reward, she and PETA, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, is for hoping that somebody will come forward and give them some information.

You are urged to call Austin Police with information.

As long as humans treat innocent, loving animals like their lives have no value, they will find no peace .. The human race has got to wake up and treat every living being with love and respect..

As a dog owner and lover this sickens me. I had one of my dogs stolen from my yard last year only for him to return a month later close to death because somebody had cut off his tail in attempt to train their dog to fight. The case was dismissed because there was no proof. I mean come on he had a tail and then he didn't he had chunks missing from his backside. It breaks my heart and angers me that these cruel people are allowed in our town to do as they please with no consequences. Bless Sweetie and all other animals that have been harmed or have lost their lives. The only good is they no longer have to suffer. RIP....

This is disturbing and the agencies who can help are probably telling the same old story of not enough time and won't give it two thoughts. If this does not get attention, people will continue to be ignorant to this inhumane way of handling a death.

I'm aware that many people regard animals as of little to no value but the person who dumped this dog in a dumpster may also have access to children. If you are not aware of the way the dog died, you may not be aware of who this person may be abusing.

The fact that things like this continually happen sickens me. Both of my dogs were rescue animals. 1 from a construction site and the other from an abusive situation that left my poor baby with physical and emotional scars. It just breaks my heart that I share this world with such cruel people.

This torture and cruelty must stop Today! We must have very strict laws that include prison time and they must be enforced to the letter. Texas needs to take a stand against animal cruelty and stop the good ole boy mentality.

This is horrible. We have the obligation to defend and protect animals just like we have the obligation to defend and protect children... both are our duties because children and animals are unable to convey their emotions/pain to us, and they are unable to protect themselves. I am so sick of terrible and abusive owners, and even more sick of the authorities pretending that they have nothing to do with it, and it "isn't their job." Stop giving people tickets for speeding 5mph over the limit, start doing work that counts, and help find out what happened to this, and many other abused animals. Our disregard for animal life (as a nation of people) is sickening. Justice is not only for humans. We need to stop being such a selfish species. Abusive owners, in my opinion, should be locked up and prevented from having any children, or animals, and definitely shouldn't be permitted to breed animals (which many do, just for the money, for fighting, not for any genuinely good reason). They will get their punishment, somehow, someday. I believe in karma.
