This guy needs to be REVIEWED: Left an old dog to die on a road!

I’m posting this for a dear friend who has rescued many animals and has compassion flowing in her heart for all animals!

On Saturday May 24th, the dog warden named **** and the sheriff’s department in the Town of Plymouth NY was involved in a case where a dog was left to die in the middle of the road. A neighbor of mine got a call about this dog and went and picked him up out of the road. The dog was an old Rottweiler. He had a rock hard mass on his right side bigger than a football. He couldn't move or even lift his head. He couldn't eat or drink on his own. **** the Plymouth dog warden was supposed to come over to help but he never showed up.

4 days and nights later Tuesday, May 27th; I got a call from my neighbor and was told this story for the very first time. I wish I found out about this poor dog sooner because I would have taken him to the vet myself and not let him suffer so long. My neighbor didn't want this dog to suffer any longer and he tried the best that he could, I just wished that he called me the moment he found this poor old dog. My neighbor did not know what to do because ****, the dog warden, threatened him with arrest if he took the dog to the vet. The dog was suffering laying in his feces and urine for 4 days!

I called and spoke to the DCO (dog Control Officer) on the phone. He didn’t care if the dog suffered or died. He refused to come down and assist my neighbors with this animal. The DCO was watching TV as I spoke to him. I demanded he do something! i Demanded he Contact a vet so this dog could pass peacefully and no longer suffer. The DCO refused.

I sat with this dog stroking his head. I gave him his last meal which he ate. Then his head fell back down. He couldn't drink, could barely lift his head up. I held him and comforted him. A dog I never met before lying on the ground suffering and dying. My neighbor and I got his frail body on a to-bog-on type sled and lifted him into the car. I stayed with him stroking him as he lay unable to move. I was there for him a total stranger. And this DCO did NOTHING! And the town supervisor didn't even want to take my name. I know of no other way to get this corrected but to take this public and away from this incompetent town board!

Compassionate Care opened their doors tonight to humanely put this animal down.

I told Mr. Jerry L. Kreiner, town official of Plymouth the story. He said he'd talk to the DCO. He didn't want my info. I feel totally dismissed. I also posted to a Chenango SPCA officer and he wrote back saying that he is deleting my story and to go elsewhere. I found out that this Chenango SPCA officer has been the kennel manager for almost 2 months now and friends with this DCO.

This poor animal lay dying for 4 DAYS and nobody cared! Share, cross post, offer suggestions, tell me where else I can go about this! I have gone to the newspapers as that is the only solution I can think of. And I am NOT going to let this animals suffering go unanswered! I'm asking my animal network friends to take a hold of this with me and help me get this DCO fired for what he allowed this dog to go through!

I can't fight this alone. But with help, we can end the suffering this man has permitted to occur.

The dog's name was Rocki. His owner is ******* ******* of Plymouth NY. She knew about his condition the entire time and did nothing. As far as I know, no charges have been filed. SHARE so Justice for Rocki can be accomplished!"
