9 Springers Rescued

Looks as though these 9 Springers have had a dull life so far.

These dogs are all deeply traumatised and have been seriously neglected if not physically abused and they will need very special homes to help them overcome the nightmare lives thy have been living. You have to be prepared for a long journey because these dogs need forever homes with the accent on forever.
Poor dogs I hope they find good homes soon...

I wonder if the owners are facing any charges as this is
not just neglect-its cruelty.
Thank God now they will begin to understand that not everyone is like their previous"owners"
It will take lots of time and patience to help them through this as they are so terribly traumatised -the pisctures broke my heart.
God bless their rescuers

If they aren't facing charges, then they should!

I do hope that good and forever homes are found for them.

Can't understand why people are cruel to pets.

I know I'm a little biased and no dog should be kept in that manner but I think it's a double tragedy that they're Springers.

Not only are they one of the most energetic breeds but the lack of interaction and mental stimulation would have been torture for them.

Despite the wording I didn't think they looked 'shockingly' bad in terms of their physical condition and in particular their weight (compared to some of the horror pictures we see) but the lack of muscle in the back legs is obvious.

Those poor, poor dogs. How could anyone

I feel guilty when our two don't get their fourth walk late at night, and I run them round the garden!

That bunch have never seen light of day!!


Sorry, ranting

Now you're making me feel bad

The bitches (asuming that's the two B&W ones) look pretty good all things considered.

I suspect the physical issues aren't too much of a problem.

Fingers crossed they haven't too many psychological problems and they're not too limited in terms of a future.
