New rescue Addie - very neglected. Anemic. Full of ticks

Addie is our newest girl in FL. She is used to living in a small cage in the backyard in Florida heat. She was also used to being a meal to over 300 parasites, including likely intestinal parasites. This girl is lucky to be alive, as her gums are pale. She sat patiently through the removal of all the ticks - probably just happy to have some affection. also used to being a meal to over 300 parasites, including likely intestinal parasites.

So sad.

Why do people like this even bother to get an animal? I hope you had one of those great tick pulling devices they sell on Amazon.

These people deserve to suffer the same fate that they gave to this little girl. Put them in a cage in the Florida sun in a yard full of ticks! Have they been charged with anything? Neglect? Cruelty?

I still cant believe this....... three hundred ticks, she is lucky to be alive. She could have not only got lyme disease, but could have been drained of all her blood... fleas are bad enough, but ticks,,,, no way. and living in a small cage outside in this heat. These people need to be charged with neglect and cruelty to an animal, and if i were the judge, i would NEVER allow them to have another dog under the threat of charging them with a felony.

Which they should be charged with anyway.

This is unforgivable.
