GOOD MORNING OLIVER!
just wanted to show you some new pics and video of Mr Oliver and how he is doing. he seems more chipper. I couldn't find anything to hide his pills in so I made him a scrambled egg. he was very happy about that.

Oliver so far.....
Hi everyone! Thanks to all who helped me help Oliver so far. Today I went to the vet in Derby to visit mr Oliver as i missed him so much. He went to the vet Tuesday morning for his shots and yesterday we got him spayed. he continues to do better with his injuries. found out the swelling on his leg was not a break but just a very infected joint. it has gone down significantly and the huge gash just above the swelling is healing nicely. he is going to stay at ElPaso Animal Clinic until a foster home/rescue can take him. I am waiting on one rescue to get back with me to see if they could work with him since apparently he was used as a bait dog. (he was meant to be the loser in a dog fighting ring) From the looks of him, he didn't win many fights. Oliver is used to every dog trying to kill him. He will need a lot of patience to bring him around. He is so loving and happy with every human. The lady in charge of looking after him daily is herself a bit bull owner and has worked for a pit bull rescue. she was so sweet with him. I tried to get some pictures of him with my camera phone but it was hard to get him to hold still. I got good pictures the first day cause he was so sad and hurt. he was more full of life today. oh and I almost forgot, Oliver weighed in today at 40lbs. that's 8lbs he has gained since i found him a week ago. yeah Oliver!! I could not have done all this if it not for the generous giving of so many of you. I feel so blessed to have found him. please pray that he can go into the right rescue that will work with him. he needs a chance.

PLEASE HELP
I was on my way out the door for work this morning when what appeared on my front porch. this precious little guy. He is obviously a pit or pit mix with horrible scars all over him. he was very friendly and wagged his tail even with the obvious injuries. most were old but there was a fresh one on his leg and a swollen area. he is limping as that right front leg is so injured. super skinny. but after all this, he still had kisses for me. I have him in my back yard, gave him food and water but he needs a vet badly! I just can't bring myself to take him to the animal shelter. they dont give one hoot about dogs there. they will put him down for sure. I just feel like God put him on my front porch to help. I'm going to try and get him to a vet tomorrow for an evaluation to see exactly what extent his injuries are. I hate asking people for money but I really need help to save him. If you are able to give even just a little bit for his medical costs send the money to my paypal account sisteramy@hotmail.com. I will post updates of his condition on this blog. thanks for reading. he will also need a forever home as i'm full with pugs.
