I am so sorry. I have read this post more than once and each and every time I do, I get more angry. I'd like to know the frickin' SOB or SOB's who did this to her.
You're right though - we'll never know what happened to Princess before her life with you. All that matters now is that her fate is safest in your hands. Let's hope the infection clears up soon so that she does not have to undergo surgery. I'll say a little prayer for her.

I know the shock you must feel upon hearing this awful news.
My first dobe that I rescued from the pound had a similar experience. Late in her life she had a growth on her side and when we took her in for x-rays, it turned out there was a bullet in her about 1 inch from her heart. Same advice. Leave it there. She was only about 1-1/2 when I got her. She had ear infections, fungus on her nose so it was pink, worms, sores, was terribly underweight, didn't know her name, had been an outside dog and then I found out she had been shot. Yes, she was afraid of thunder and fireworks. She would try to claw her way inside my body when they happened. She couldn't get close enough to me for protection. It was a HORRIBLE thing to watch and experience. There was just no comforting her.
I pray your Princess heals quickly both physically and emotionally. People do evil things. I trust God will take care of it because He's taking names.
Take care and give her a hug for me.

How did you get out of the house unnoticed? What is going on here????? Are we off our schedule????? AAAAAAAAAaaaeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!??????

Your post made me cry.. I feel so bad for what happened to Princess before her new life with you. Some people just do not deserve any rights. Whomever did this to Princess should have nothing. I mean nothing!
I can only say that I am glad you two found each other and she has been given a second chance. I know this must be hard on you and your family but just think where Princess might be without you
We are praying that her infection goes away. Keep us posted and if there is anything we can do to help PLEASE let us know.

This makes me so sad and angry! As I read what was found in the x-rays,
tears just streamed down my face. That poor girl to have to suffer through
such cruelty.
Just love her. And thank God she's with you now.
I don't like to bring it up, considering what we've just found out, but I think we
all know now that it's very unlikely that the loss of her ear was caused by a
fence.
How can people be so darn evil!! What goes around, comes around. Whoever
did that to her will get what they deserve in the end! (And I hope they suffer!!)
Thank God she's with you now.
My heart goes out to you!
Give Princess a great big kiss from all of us!

Dogs don't know about beginnings, and they don't speculate on matters that occurred before their time.
Dogs also don't know-or at least don't accept-the concept of death.
With no concept of beginnings or endings, dogs probably don't know that for people, having a dog as a life companion provides a streak of light between two eternities of darkness

was terrified of th'storms,fireworks,gunshots ect.. We knew something
bad had happened to him before we got him.

Just know that you are now making Princess feel extremely safe and loved and that is all that matters.
She has the home that she deserves and all the love that she needs.
As Arda said....Give her a big kiss from Rusty and I.
You are in my thoughts and prayers

I'm so sorry to hear about your dear Princess. What people's minds are made up of, no one will know...
Princess is now with her forever home, a mother and family who are hers to love, and protect, and cuddle with. She's now where she's supposed to be, and lived through heck to get there. Does she ever deserve to be where she is. Give her lots of hugs from me and Brody. Unimaginable, what some @ssholes are capable of doing to animals, to our companions....makes me sick.

This morning I had to take the bandage off and I knew it hurt because the blood was caked on the pad. and she didn't cry or anything just let me do it.then I put the medicine on and she just watched. She is such a wonderful baby.

I just read about poor Princess. Maybe your trip to the vet was actually a blessing in disguise. At least now you are aware of what she is carrying around with her both physically & emotionally. Thank God, literally, she found you & a forever home. There is just no understanding the sick minds of some people. Give Princess an extra hug from me.

That's exactly what I was thinking. A horrible thing to find out about your
beloved pet, but at least you now know and can help her.

Ella, can you wet/soak it in warm water before you remove.. That way the pad won't stick so much!!! Easier to peel off too!!!

I'm so sorry for poor Princess - and YOU, TOO! What a dilemma. Poor baby. Whoever did that to her, THAT GENE POOL SHOULD BE PURGED FROM THE PLANET. Smart as a box of rocks, and a cruel SOB to boot. What goes around eventually DOES come around. They'll get theirs some day. Can't happen soon enough.
My thoughts and prayers are with you both.
