How does a pup cup wind up on the head?

An update now on Kiki, the boxer who was surrendered by her owner after animal advocates witnessed her condition.

This is in Broadway, North Carolina.

Look at this sweet girl—she’s emaciated, not even half the weight she should be. Kiki has a long road ahead, and her condition is critical.

Animal advocate Michelle Leigh tells us Kiki’s kidney values are very concerning. She’s not eating and is under veterinary care, where she’s undergoing testing, including an SDMA test, to help pinpoint the problem.

Meanwhile, the Harnett County Sheriff’s Office has launched an investigation into her owner. No charges have been filed yet. We’ve reached out to the sheriff’s office and are waiting to hear back.

Now, many of you have reached out to the animal hospital caring for Kiki. But access to her is restricted for legal reasons. Michelle Leigh asks that if you want to help with Kiki’s care, please donate to the Pet Angel Fund in Fayetteville. We have confirmed this information. You can find more details on their Facebook page at Fayetteville Pets Angel Fund.

And finally, Michelle asks for your prayers. This is the fight of Kiki’s life. We’ll continue to monitor her progress and share any updates as we get them.

Justice for K9 Horus.

A change of venue in the case of his now former handler who’s charged with misdemeanor animal abuse in connection with K9 Horus’s death.

Horus’s now former handler, Daniel Zeigler, was fired and has pled not guilty to misdemeanor animal abuse. That’s after a plan he, Chief David Vincent, and a neighbor reportedly cooked up once they found Horus dead in the back of the vehicle after 12 hours in the summer heat and the backup system turned off.

The Missouri Attorney General and Zeigler’s attorneys have agreed to the change of venue. The next step? A phone conference at 11 a.m. on November 22nd to set a trial date.
