Im so sad. I got an email from Pima County Animal Control. These 2 precious seniors are about to be killed. I have a heart for poodles, but this big guy is tugging at my heart, too. From the email: POODLE: Bean (A461727) is a 13 year old male miniature poodle who was placed on the rescue list on 11/27 for age/dental. His medical issues are: diarrhea, and severe dental disease. He is shut down here. He will need commitment by 11 AM tomorrow, 11/30. Arizona Poodle Rescue and HSSA have been contacted and both passed on him due to his overall condition. The big boy: Big Ben (A462054) was placed on a 48-hour hold for rescue efforts last night. However, he is deteriorating extremely quickly and will no longer walk, stand, or eat on his own despite being on pain management. It’s inhumane to maintain him in his current condition, and he will need to be committed on by 11 AM tomorrow, 11/30, or he will be euthanized. I emailed Pima about them. I just got an email response back from them. This is what was said: We’re hesitant to keep the poodle here for too much longer due to his overall deteriorating condition. He’s got severe dental problems, diarrhea, and is absolutely miserable… His quality of life here is pretty much nonexistent. As for Big Ben, all we really know is what’s been described in the email. He’s a very large, overweight dog and he is not doing well here. Our best guess is that he’s 10+ years old. ---------------------- IS THERE ANY RESCUE THAT CAN TAKE EITHER? AN EMAIL/PHONE CALL MUST BE MADE TONIGHT TO SAVE THEIR LIVES. IF A PHOENIX RESCUE WANTS THEM, WE CAN GET THEM PULLED FROM PIMA. LET ME KNOW ASAP AND ILL HELP GET THEM PULLED. I WILL TRANSPORT EITHER, OR BOTH, DOGS FROM TUCSON, IF A PHOENIX RESCUE WILL SAVE EITHER OF THEM.
