JUSTICE FOR SHEPP


Shepp was a  dog that was left for well over a month to die ,No food No water and chained to the extent that the collar was embedded in his skin. .No one cared. While a whole neighborhood stood by and saw his  suffering ,No one did anything!!Until it was too late, Someone  had placed food by him, but by then  he was too weak to even get up. ( KZTV)Action 10 News..  A News station that stands up for people and animals alike
First responded to a call pertaining  To a dog near death , .Shep was taken to Corpus Christi Animal Care .(Sept 16 2008)  To where he was cared for by the vets and staff there ,  I know for a fact  .For i was able to see him from behind the glass Friday afternoon  The  .Vets and staff that were  there with him treated him with such compassion  and care .Shepp passed away later that afternoon ( Sept 19.2008). Which was devastating
 to the Vet and staff at Animal Care Services.

His will to live was there,He wagged his tail and even tried to lift his head. However his body couldn't take it ,Due to the extreme neglect he endured for a month .He left this life ,

what is needed is signatures on a petition started out for justice ,

In these cases of cruelty it is often difficult to catch and charge     .For one month.Shepp  had no food .little or no water , The indifference  that the neighbors displayed by allowing this to go one for a whole month They are as guilty as the two that left Shepp .  To suffer in such pain ,Not even giving Shepp any water or food.They looked on and did nothing,
There are many others  that are in dire need of help
It is appalling how far this went on .And it  usually never gets  prosecuted
Our VOICE ,can make all the difference .
Please take a moment ,As hard as it is please   view  the video .It tears  me apart. But  bear witness , We shall speak  out for those that cannot..

Thank you my dear friends And please REPOST  ( SHEPPS  )story  far and wide..That justice may prevail ,And to those who stood by and did nothing They   must be held accountable as well.
For the guilt lies heavy upon them.
 
Please note
KZTV Action 10 News  is the only  News that is accurate . And were the only ones to have  covered the story ,
Other local news  picked up the story almost two weeks  after ..(Just a note to clarify  the facts (.Shepp passed away 3 days after Animal Care Services took him and tried to save this beautiful creature ,Shepp was so malnourished and had serious injury's  .That his poor body  could not fight any longer .He died naturally .He was never put down ,At one point he was getting better  That  he was  to have  be transfered to( Oso Creek Hospital )
Bless you Shepp  .
I am at a loss to express the sorrow and anger i feel .
I only wonder why and how can people turn their heads and say its only an animal,,

I look at the photo of this poor baby and I just want to sob. The idea that anyone could treat another living and loving creature this way is purely evil. There is no human lower than the one who harms those they are entrusted to care for. There is a special place in hell for those people. I hope that those who did this and those who allowed it will receive the punishment they so deserve!

the people who did this and the people (neighbors) who watched and did nothing, they should be chained up for a month and given only water and barely any food and see how it feels. this is a travesty beyond description. anyone who has ever had a dog as a friend is outraged and deeply saddened at such an atrocity. THEY ALL SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND PUNISHED. Mandatory community service in the animale shelter might be some good pennance.
