A noontime urgent story....

(Update: This little dog has been claimed by Hillcrest Animal Rescue. More on condition, treatment later. )

THE NEVER-ENDING CHALLENGE: Oh, goodness, this just in as we approach the noon hour.
Our reliable tipster Patricia Barrington, the Animal Control Division Manager of The Colony, says that last night ACO Robert Cox was “called out on an injured puppy.”
Yep, that’s the little Rottie-looking girl.  May actually be a Rottie. Someone had “found” her, the story went. You never know. Sometimes people are not entirely forthcoming out in the real world.
Manager Barrington says the puppy appears to have a “dislocated shoulder" and “The sweet girl is in a tremendous amount of pain. She is being given over-the-counter pain meds and is sleeping quite a bit –but she desperately needs proper medical attention. I’ve named her Jelly Belly.”
So, to offer to help Jelly Belly call 972-370-9250 or e-mail [email protected].
Patricia says, “Robert called me about it last night and was here before me this morning, taking pictures and asking me to ‘send blast emails.’  This one has hurt his heart.”
