I received this email yesterday. This GSD was dumped out of a moving car on a car seat cushion. A very nice elderly couple has taken her in (along with several other dogs) but they can't afford vetting on them. She needs medical attention, she has a sore on the side of her face. The volunteers that took the pics said all of these dogs are quite social. The GSD is said to be very sweet and laid back and not aggressive at all. Obviously good with other dogs, don't know about cats. East Tennessee in the Appalachians. Contact Renee for more info. If I had any room I'd try to take her, wouldn't be the first time I drove to Knoxville to get a dog. I'll post the pics in a separate reply, it will take me a bit to crop them down and get them on photobucket. Black and tan female, approximately 3 yrs old.

Unbelievable! Just look at her sweet face!

 

[GSDgirlAL]

Someone needs to throw them out of a moving car!!!!

I hope this sweet and Beautiful girl finds the right home! Bless those sweet elderly people who are making sure she has food and water.

Yeah they have a lot of dogs and the all breed rescue is trying to move the purebreds to rescues so she can help with the mixes.

What a beauty! That sore looks painful! Poor baby.

I am sorry but I don't see any sores in the pictures. What are you refering to?

 

[gsdcentral]

The side of her face is swollen, likely road rash from being put out of moving vehicle. Left side of the pic, her right side. You can see it in the second pic best.

 

[Jazy's mom]

Ok I feel like an idiot now. I was looking for scab wounds. There may be fluid in there that needs to be drained. At first glance I just thought she had a ball or bone in her mouth, but it probably is from being thrown out of the car.

I emailed Renee (who I happen to know) and I will try to find a better place for her to go. I am full, but I do know of someone in Knoxville looking for a female. I have not done a home visit or reference checks yet so no guarantees.

Thanks. If I had space I'd take her but no room here. Keep me posted.
