The Cingo Memorial Fund
Chingo came into the rescue on April 20th. You see, Chingo and her brother Burley, a black lab, were dumped at animal control in gaston county, where most of our dogs are pulled from. There wouldn't be anything unsual about this sad story except for one thing- Chingo was 16 years old, and Burley was 12. Their owners had abandoned these poor dogs in their final years, alone in a cold
forsaken concrete run. No warm bed, no soft words, no kind touches- after 16 years of loyalty. Chingo couldn't walk or lift her head very easily- she was very tired and sick and heartbroken. So yes, we pulled Chingo and Burley, but with the idea that with all that Chingo has given to her horrible people- with 16 years of love and dedication behind her, how could we let her go into the cold
and dark gas chamber and die a slow painful death? So Chingo and Burley were picked up and taken to the vet, where Chingo was loaded with enough morphine to allow her to walk on her own power. She came back home and we set her up in a nice pen in the sun in the front yard and let her bask with her buddy and enjoy the day. We fed her lobster tail with chocolate sauce, and then we had the vet
come over and kindly, lovingly with Burley by herside and my arms around her, Chingo was led across the bridge. She deserved it- no more pain and loneliness.
The Chingo Fund allows us to continue to help senior dogs abandoned by their owners who do not want to pay the money to have their dogs kindly and humanely euthenized. The Chingo Fund allows us to pull these dogs and have them humanely euthenized in the loving arms of someone who cares about them, and wants whats best. It gives them a dignified death.
