“Bridget” was spotted by a concerned citizen in a coulee in St. Landry Parish. It appears that she was burned severely and thrown off of a bridge (hence the name “Bridget”). She was found with a noose tied around her neck.
The concerned citizen called the St. Landry Parish Animal Control and Rescue, who immediately sent a representative to assess the situation.
"We are in route....this poor pit looks like it was thrown from a vehicle. It's frail body is trembling, with a noose still dangling around its neck. A good samaritan sent this photo in and she is nervously pacing waiting on Animal Control to arrive. The citizen roadside states, "the dog lifted its head one time and can see the dog is alive and breathing." We will keep you all informed throughout the day we fear the worst for this dog... this dog will be routed straight to the vet for a full evaluation. - St. Landry Parish Animal Control & Rescue Facebook
Bridget was taken to a vet clinic and is currently being treated.
As you can see, she has severe burns on her side.
I don’t know how someone can do something so cruel to another creature, especially a creature who, with the proper love and care, would return that love unconditionally.
You can help Bridget on her road to recovery, and it seems like it will be a long road, by donating directly to her cause by calling the Bellevue Animal Clinic at 337-942-7126.
If you suspect animal abuse or cruelty in your neighborhood, please do not hesitate calling the authorities to make a report.
