Starving Dog Jumps out of a 3 story Window in New Bedford, Massachusetts (Video)
 |
| The Starving pooch that attempted to martyr herself! |
The official story is......
Two young dogs are recovering from malnourishment after one of them jumped out of a three-story window in New Bedford, breaking her hip and hind leg. The dog had apparently been abandoned and left to starve for two months in a tenantless dwelling. The decision to catapult herself out of the window was officially reported as a desperate attempt to find food but I deem the act as a suicide attempt of a political nature. Perhaps, the dog meant to make the ultimate statement and martyr herself to bring awareness to animal cruelty. If that is the case, then the stunt worked as the incident immediately prompted Animal control officers to begin an investigation in what they term as "felony cruelty" to animals. In addition to that, advocates for animal rights began action on several animal protection bills in the fallout of this Ghandi-esc stunt.
"People need dramatic examples to shake them out of apathy, and I can't do that as [a simple pooch]. As a [dog], I'm flesh and blood. I can be ignored, I can be destroyed. But as a symbol … as a symbol, I can be incorruptible. I can be everlasting." ~ Alfred
Both animals were taken to Cape Cod Veterinary Specialists. Surgeons were able to treat the one-year-old jumper for broken bones, but she will require ongoing monitoring and a special feeding program to address the effects of severe malnutrition. Nobody cares about the one that was too afraid to make the ultimate sacrifice and chose the cowardice and sanctuary of the 3rd floor. However, we can safely assume it is in good care and undergoing a similar rehabilitation regimen. Both animals should be fine.
Authorities are asking for any information regarding the douchebags that abandoned the dogs and are encouraged to call New Bedford Animal Control Officer Emmanuel Maciel at 508-991-6366.
