The Plight of Patrick: Dog starved and put in garbage

Patrick - before treatment
Patrick - during recovery





On March 16th of this year, a maintenance man for a Newark apartment building was emptying the garbage chute when a bag suddenly move. Inside was a pit bull mix nearing its death. Rushed to local animal society in Newark, staff gave around the clock care to help bring the pup back to life. Because of his good fortune (and serendipitous timing), the dog was named Patrick - bringing new meaning to the term "luck of the Irish." If you would like to read more about this, or donate to the society's rescue fund, please go to their website at http://www.ahscares.org/showarchive.asp?id=772.
