DESCRIPTION: Karl is one of those terribly sad sad cases that can break your heart. An animal control officer spotted him digging through garbage looking for food; he watched him stumble and fall. Karl was so weak that the officer had to pick him up and lift him into his truck. Everyone at the shelter was touched by this dog's sweet and gentle nature and turned to MAGSR to help him. In his extremely poor condition there would be no alternative but for the shelter to euthanize this dog. Not many rescues or adopters would want an older dog in such poor shape but we at MAGSR could not turn our back on this sweet old guy.
Karl is so horrifically thin that every rib and every vertebrae in his back is visible. His hair is patchy and very sparse, and he is so weak from prolonged starvation he can barely stand. He is literally a walking skeleton. As starved as he is and as hungry as he must have been, he will still take treats very gently and carefully.
Karl's condition at this time is very fragile, He is still so extremely weak that at this time we do not know if he will recover from what appears to be prolonged starvation and obvious serious neglect. However, we are making sure that he will spend his time from now on with people who will envelope him with love and care while making sure he is never hungry or cold again. In spite of all the horror that he has been through, Karl is a sweet and dignified gentleman with gentle and soulful eyes.
We will keep his page updated with new pictures and continuing news of his progress.
