Our
Dearly Departed Friends
These
beautiful dogs lived out the final days of their lives as residents at the
SCARS compound. They were part of the SCARS
family, enjoying a loving, and comfortable environment – many after coming
from terrible circumstances.
We
will miss them all.

what appears to be a heart attack.
Here he is with his grandmother who loved him as we all did.

- ROMEO -

On March 26, 2008, Romeo lost his final battle. Never has a
dog fought more valiantly to live, nor has any dog ever been loved by so
many people. He touched every heart
with his gentle and loving nature. We rescued him too late to
undo the damage from the prolonged starvation and lack of care. But he knew finally how much he was loved
and he died peacefully - but too soon.
He will never be forgotten.
-------
Read his story
below:

Romeo - cruelty case. When SCARS got him, we immediately took him to
the vet. On IV's for complications of starvation for two weeks and now on antibiotics
and enzymes. Weighed 8 lbs when we got him, and should have weighed at
least 20 lbs. Unable to digest his food properly because of the
prolonged starvation.
Despite all of this, he
remains cheerful and determined to live. His medical bills will continue to
add up, but we are determined to give him every chance to live a life he
was denied.
See the special flyer on Romeo by clicking here.

- BUNNY -

We lost our beloved golden retriever, Bunny, on March 16, 2010
after she ate a piece of plastic and bled internally. She was the sweetest
and gentlest dog who ever lived.

Ollie
left us on May 21, 2008. He was a
very noble dog, and had been through a great deal of trauma prior to
arriving at SCARS. He has been a
total joy to have with us and will be sorely missed. See his story from the 2006 Newsletter here.
