Dog left to die alone at California shelter

  • February 5th, 2011 1:09 pm ET
Crying...for the owner that handed over the leash to strangers and left me here alone.
Confused....by the unfamiliar sounds and faces that surround me.
Longing....for the touch of a kind hand on my tired body.
Haunted....by memories of days by my owner's side.
Saddened...by the sounds of fear coming from the other dogs around me.
Begging....for someone to take me away from the fear, confusion and sadness that surrounds me.
Yogi was surrendered to the Carson Shelter on Thursday. His owner told the shelter that Yogi could barely walk as a result of hip dysplasia.
Rather than humanely euthanizing the senior dog - comforting him in his final hours - Yogi's owner abandoned him at a shelter where he will sit alone, on a hard, cement floor, for several days before being euthanized by a stranger.
Yogi will depart this life without the dignity and comfort that his owner owed him. No last special meal, no comforting words from the mouth of his owner...only fear and loneliness.
Stats on Yogi:
Sex: Male
Primary Breed: GERM SHEPHERD
Age: 14 Years, 0 Months
Location: CARSON
YOGI - 14 YEARS OLD - IMPOUND ID #A4238213 - Carson Shelter - Phone: 310-523-9566 or direct line 310-527-5158 , Address: 216 W. Victoria Street, Carson, CA 90248
This is no way to treat a companion. Loved ones deserve better.
