Re: injured shepherd on Jurupa in Mira Loma / Pedley, Califo

I finally got a call back from the humane society. They said that they are purely an adoption agency and do not accept injured animals. They said that there is no place to take an injured found animal for emergency treatment at public expense. However, they did have some good information and a good ...

Re: injured shepherd on Jurupa in Mira Loma / Pedley, Califo

I agree with what you are saying about spaying and neutering. That is part of the problem. Pets getting loose out of people's yards or trucks is another part of the problem. And not having a publicly funded means of immediate medical treatment, rather than euthanasia, for injured animals, like we do...

Re: injured shepherd on Jurupa in Mira Loma / Pedley, Califo

I called the humane society and asked if they accept injured animals. I described what happened with animal control and the injured dog that I found and explained that I was trying to determine where to take an injured animal if I find one in the future. The lady on the phone said she had never had ...

Re: injured shepherd on Jurupa in Mira Loma / Pedley, Califo

I got the copy of the record. It is typed abbreviations and initials, so it is somewhat difficult to understand. It looks like they sedated him, x-rayed him, found that the tibia, fibula, and humourous bones of the right hind leg were broken, then killed him at 9:07 a.m. There is nobody at animal co...

Re: injured shepherd on Jurupa in Mira Loma / Pedley, Califo

Mary, I just re-read your post and noticed that you said "Humane society", not animal control. Which place did you go to, animal control on Wilderness north of Jurupa Ave or the humane society on Fremont north of Jurupa Ave a few blocks away or a different facility? I think years ago anima...

Re: injured shepherd on Jurupa in Mira Loma / Pedley, Califo

I have heard a bunch of bad things about various facilities or services associated with Riverside County Animal Control, but most of them, like yours, were a few years ago. I have heard that they have had a change of management and things are better now than they were a few years ago, but there is a...

Re: injured shepherd on Jurupa in Mira Loma / Pedley, Califo

It is too late. Animal Control already killed the dog. I went there in person and was told that it was already euthanized. When I asked why, I was told that it probably had internal injuries or some such thing. I filled out the form to request a copy of the records, that should include the report fr...

Re: injured shepherd on Jurupa in Mira Loma / Pedley, Califo

I called Riverside County animal control, expecting that I would be able to find out by now whether the dog was taken to a vet and how it was doing, but was shocked to find out that they are not allowed to give out any information. When I asked the reason for that rule, they didn't know, just that t...

injured shepherd on Jurupa in Mira Loma / Pedley, California

While I was driving on Jurupa Rd near the border of the areas of Mira Loma and Pedley in western Riverside County, California, I saw a German Shephered lying alongside the road as if it had been hit by a car. As I slowed down, I saw an ear wiggle, so I knew it was still alive. I parked and went over...

Re: Dogs: Opinion, PLEASE

I think its best if everything has at least one of its own kind to play with. My former neighbor used to keep two dogs. Whenever the eldest would die, he would get a new one. The elder dog would always perk up when the youngster arrived. Most young dogs will follow a big dog around and try to do eve...

Re: Help Needed: Seizures

I am not a vet or a doctor, so I can only offer what I have seen and heard. I have never seen a pet having a seizure, but have seen plenty of people having them. During the seizure, you just want to keep them from accidentally hurting themselves while they are thrashing around. Usually you just need...
