While I appreciate the thoughts behind the outpouring here I'd like to inject a bit of reality into the situation here.

In THIS country there are many many children who are in a worse situation than that dog.

There are adults as well, now if they landed that way as a result of their own decisions I have no sympathy, but many do not. I had spinal surgery about a year and a half ago and as lucky as I was to have pretty decent insurance it still cost me a LOT of money, I mean a lot....I'm still paying the bills.

Had I not had insurance and resources to pay I'd currently be in worse shape than that dog.

My point here, is don't lose track of the reality that in the long run, people are more important than animals, specially children. Don't forget them when you get all misty over an emaciated canine.
