Eventful Day
Well as some of you know i work in housing, many of our houses are in inner city Harrisburg, Pa.
Well today i go and do an inspection of a house that the renters were evicted from, which i want to add i only did today because i had time, and i wasn't planning on doing the inspection till next Wednesday.
So when i go inside i start upstairs do the inspection, go to the main living area, then head into the basement, well i'm down there for about a minute when i hear moving. I start to freak out and then realize that there is something behind the wall, when i go around a corner a hear a little bark, that is when a pit bull appears.
He is all skin and bone...i run up stairs call the police and i'm told they can't do anything till the Humane Society gets involve, i then called the Humane Society they told me they can't do anything because the house was with in the city limits, they told me to call the city animal control, so i call them and the guy does the rescue is on vacation and there is nothing they can do.
Well after all of this nothing gets resolved, so i make one phone call to a friend who does fostering and she immediately tells me to get the dog to her, that her rescue will take care of everything for us, so we decided to call the news paper and the local news station to report this issue...
I will post pics of him as soon as i can, when we were being interviewed by the news station he was licking my face and wagging his tail...he is a about a year old and was 15-20lbs underweight, but so happy!!!

When were the renters evicted? Or rather, when did they up and leave? Do you know?
(aside: my eyes read your handle too quickly and I first read it as I Luv My 25 Shibas)
As Chrystal stated, good job!! (and ROFL at 25 shibas).
The owners were evicted on Monday, but haven't been seen in two weeks, which is what the neighbors told us....
I was scared when I first seen him, because there has been alot of dog fighting going on around here, but then i realized he was a full grown pit, and he couldn't even get a bark out he was so weak....
Here is a pic of him after we got him a bath and a check up with the vet....His new name is Tyrone we have been calling him Ty!!!!
I wish i could have 25 shibas!!!!
I just want to surround him with food until he ends up unable to move because of a food coma!

I hope he is able to make a full recovery and never have to worry about where his next meal will come from. He is a lucky boy.
