As a living thing, you have certain rights. You the the right to food, shelter - the love of a family.

What do you do if your dog doesn't eat?

1. You try different dry foods
2. You try wet dog food
3. You try holistic or home cooked foods
4. You take your dog to the vet!

What you don't do:

1. Watch your dog waste away before your eyes then dump them at the shelter when it's too late to save them and leave them to die alone, cold and lonely.

Guess which option Sally's family chose.

Sally's family watched her waste away. All we know for sure is that they NEVER took her to the vet.

For 72 hours after she was abandon at the shelter volunteers tried in vain to get her to eat something - anything! What she managed to swallow was vomited back up within minutes. Sally had been starved for so long that her internal organs had shut down. She died within 3 days of being dropped at the shelter.

This tribute is to Sally and to the dogs like her - help us stop animal cruelty so deaths like Sally's never happen again.
