my name is Sweetpea I was involved in a hit and run by a white dodge truck. Some people seen it happen and got me out of the road, contacted JFAA. once JFAA got to me I had crawled to the field because the people that rescued me had to go onto their destination. I did not cry or bark but kept hitting my tail on the ground until JFAA found me, they put me in a sheet to me to their home and the following day I was sent into surgery at London Vet. I had to have pins/rods placed in my femur because it was broken. The pins/rods remained in my leg for 3-4 mths. Needless to say I am doing GREAT and living with my adopted parents and brother.
I was rescued from laurel Co. family members knew I was living in poor condition by a member that was not able to attend to me because if him being incompetent, yet they failed to help me. JFAA pulled me from the mud( I was so week I could not get up on my own) took me to another place, made me a harness to hold me up, although I had abscess on foot, because of a roofing nail that was inserted into my horse shoe by the owner. I was later put to rest because of my condition.
