Someone had no more use for this dog. They had<br \/>\nstarved it to near death, put it in a garbage bag and threw it down the<br \/>\ngarbage chute. <\/p>\n<p>A maintenance worker cleans out the bin every few<br \/>\n days and on Wednesday, March 16th, they were cleaning out the contents<br \/>\nof the container to go directly into a trash compacter. The bag moved a<br \/>\nlittle and the worker opened it to find a moribund dog inside &#8212;<br \/>\npathetically thin, cold and near death.<\/p>\n<p>The City of Newark Animal<br \/>\n Control was contacted and ACO Arthur Skinner picked up the dog and<br \/>\nbrought him directly to the Society. <\/p>\n<p>The veterinary staff<br \/>\nimmediately put him on intravenous fluid.His temperature was so low that<br \/>\n it did not even register on the thermometer. He was covered with<br \/>\nheating pads and blankets. Society vet tech Gina DeSalvo held the pit<br \/>\nbull in her arms &#8212; she soothed him, gave him warmth, comfort and bits<br \/>\nof food. From that moment on, he looked up with gratitude in his eyes to<br \/>\n all of the staff.<\/p>\n<p>After a brief time at the Society&#8217;s Newark<br \/>\nfacility, he was ambulanced to Garden State Veterinary Specialists in<br \/>\nTinton Falls &#8212; a referral hospital with 24 hour emergency care. If he<br \/>\ndied during that night, we feel he would know that everyone loved and<br \/>\ncared about him and treated him gently and lovingly. <\/p>\n<p>He amazed<br \/>\neveryone at the Society and at Garden State by surviving with the 24<br \/>\nhour emergency care that they rendered. He was given a blood<br \/>\ntransfusion, a bath &#8212; and even a walk! <\/p>\n<p>In honor of the first<br \/>\nday of his re-birth, we call him Patrick &#8212; in honor of St. Patrick&#8217;s<br \/>\nDay and we hope he has the luck of the Irish!. File 99623-F.<\/p>\n<p>The<br \/>\nSociety&#8217;s Res-Q Fund is just what is needed for emergency situations as<br \/>\nthis. The expenses involved are high and the effort to save this dog<br \/>\ncomes at a great cost. Although emaciated dogs have come in for our<br \/>\nhelp, we have never seen one this wasted. There will be a long road to<br \/>\nrecovery and your donations to the Res-Q Fund will help Patrick. <\/p>\n<p>*<br \/>\n This is my first video&#8230; I don&#8217;t own the pictures&#8230; Nor the facebook<br \/>\npage&#8230; I was simply moved enough to create this video for the world to<br \/>\nsee&#8230; There is much injustice in this world and what they did to<br \/>\nPatrick will probably not be prosecuted properly&#8230; His owner should be<br \/>\nashamed.<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"padding-bottom: 8px\" id=\"watch-headline-title\">Patrick Enjoys a Meal<br \/>\n  <\/h1>\n<p><object><\/object><\/p>\n<p>Monday, March 28th.<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"padding-bottom: 8px\" id=\"watch-headline-title\">Dr. Scavelli feeds Patrick<br \/>\n  <\/h1>\n<p><object><\/object><\/p>\n<div id=\"watch-description-text\">\n<div id=\"eow-description\">Patrick is hand fed his afternoon meal by Dr. Tom Scavelli<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<h1>Patrick&#8217;s Ultrasound Procedure <\/h1>\n<p><object><\/object><\/p>\n<p>Monday, March 28, 2011<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"padding-bottom: 8px\" id=\"watch-headline-title\">Patrick enjoys a refreshing bath<br \/>\n  <\/h1>\n<p><object><\/object><\/p>\n<p>Mar 30, 2011<br \/>\n<br \/>\nSince Patrick&#8217;s body temperature is under control and he is feeling well, the technicians at GSVS decided it was time for a bath.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h1 style=\"padding-bottom: 8px\" id=\"watch-headline-title\">Patrick barking<\/h1>\n<p><object><\/object><\/p>\n<p>Mar 30, 2011<\/p>\n<div id=\"watch-description-text\">\n<div id=\"eow-description\">When Patrick knows food is coming he gets very excited.

It&#8217;s accepted that many people do not like animals or dogs or pit bulls in particular. However, the heartless manner in which a dying animal is tossed away like garbage is not only reprehensible but the increase that we have seen indicates a downward spiral of compassion, moral fiber and ethics.<\/p>\n<p>The 22 story apartment building is equipped with garbage chutes on each floor for tenants. Someone had no more use for this dog. They had starved it to near death, put it in a garbage bag and threw it down the garbage chute. A maintenance worker cleans out the bin every few days and on Wednesday, March 16th, they were cleaning out the contents of the container to go directly into a trash compacter.
