WARNING!!!!! DUE TO THEIR GRAPHIC NATURE, THESE PHOTOGRAPHS MAY NOT BE SUITABLE FOR YOUNG CHILDREN
On April 14th, 2004, Trina
Saunders, Debbie Johnson and I rescued this beautiful, innocent animal from
Wade Road where he had been dumped in a ditch filled with water to die...from
his wounds, from starvation, from being hit by a car...the person who dumped
him along with all the garbage on the roadside didn't care how he died.
"Wade" has an awful wound to
his left rear foot and leg...Bones are exposed, flesh is missing, a pad is
barely hanging on, there's literally a hole through his foot, an obvious
oozing wound from wire higher on his leg and the ever-present ants.
Yes, that's the floor you see between the bones in his foot!
 This beautiful animal was thrown away as useless, not important, something of no value whatsoever....yet, this dog is gentle, forgiving, loving, and a perfect example of what God says we humans should strive to be... Gentle, Forgiving, Loving..... 
Most likely "Wade," who let us pick him up and move him into the car and
again out of it...all the while wagging his tail slowly, will probably
have to have his leg amputated. He will have a fairly long recovery
period, but one fine day he will be healthy and will move around as well
on three legs as his counterparts do on four. "Wade" has that to look
forward to; but for now he spent last night as comfortably as possible.
He's been told what a good dog he is, he's been fed, he's safe and now he
faces the vet and limb amputation tomorrow.
Wade needs our help, and we need
your help! Please tell Wade's story and ask for help with the medical costs
that Baytown Humane Society is about to incur with the healing of Wade. Even
small amounts add up!!
It's going to be expensive, but
just look in that face... worth every nickel! This boy has paid his dues, and
it's his turn now... Like Debbie told him when we three converged on him and
were sickened by his condition, "Boy, your Hell is over now!" And truer words
were never spoken...
Wade can rest now on the wings of
angels...
