A Tearful Tribute to the Beloved Rescued Canine Whose Heart-Reaching Farewell United Hearts Around the World.

January 2, 2024 by Pham Hien

The dedicated team at Citadel Wayne Animal Care and Control has witnessed their fair share of animal neglect and abuse, but the story of “Thin Dog” struck them deeply. This young Beagle or Brittany mix was abandoned behind a former store in Citadel Wayne, Indiana, and by the time rescuers found him, he was in a dire state, too weak to even stand.

Veterinarians rushed to provide emergency care for Thin Dog, and initially, he responded well to treatment. He started eating and growing stronger, and for a while, it seemed like Thin Dog, as he was affectionately known to caretakers and his growing community of social media supporters, might overcome this challenging ordeal. For a brief period, Thin Dog appeared to be improving, bringing hope to the dedicated staff and his well-wishers.

However, after a series of tests, the shelter staff discovered that Thin Dog’s red blood cell count was alarmingly low. In a last-ditch effort to save him, Thin Dog received a blood transfusion, leaving his fans anxiously awaiting an update on his condition. Unfortunately, the blood transfusion did not succeed, and the shelter staff had no choice but to say goodbye to their resilient dog.

“It’s with the heaviest hearts that we share our sweet boy has crossed the rainbow bridge,” Citadel Wayne Animal Care & Control announced on Facebook. “This sweet boy was such a fighter and beat all odds we had for him when we met him just over a week ago.”

The sanctuary staff praised their medical team for their unwavering care and dedication and expressed their gratitude for the outpouring of support from around the world. They acknowledged that cases like Thin Dog’s are emotionally challenging for their staff, and while they can’t share all the details due to the sensitive nature of the investigations, they are thankful for the words of encouragement they’ve received.

Despite this heartbreaking loss, the team remains committed to seeking justice for Thin Dog, who suffered neglect and abuse. They emphasized the importance of continuing the investigation and urged anyone with information to contact their office. Every tip is valuable in their quest to bring justice to this case.

In the meantime, the legacy of Thin Dog lives on as a reminder of the need for compassion and vigilance in the fight against animal cruelty.
