Short Summary

Hello everyone my name is Jennifer and i recently lost a bull terrier due to terminal heart condition and kidney failure.  So I decided to start trying to help others in need.  I ran across a Bull Terrier on craigslist that the owner could no longer take care of.  His story was he worked too much and didn't have time to train him.  The guy told me he didn't believe in crating the dog, so while he was at work, he let him run free and he ate some of his property.  Which is normal with a puppy.  Well the more I spoke to this guy the more I realized he shouldn't EVER have an animal to tend after.  When I finally got to see Rocko in Queens NYC he was chained up in a basement to a radiator.  He had nothing to lay on, simply cold concrete.  He had sores on his legs and the tip of his tail was bloody and needed some medical attention.  So I took Rocko with me that day and got him in for his shots and got him fixed.  But his tail continued to be a problem.  Two night ago I ran out to go tanning and I returned home to see him covered in blood and blood all over my house.  As he turned around I saw he had bit off a huge chunk of his tail.  Freaking out at this point I called my vet and got him in the very next day.  Needless to say he is still at the vets office and will be there for a few days at best.  They were not able to save his tail, and said they must amputate it, due to the blunt trauma he had to it.  They were not sure what the previous owner did to his tail but it was severe enough that they must remove it.  

So unsure how i am going to pay for all these medical bills my boss mentioned to me I should start some sort of campaign to try to help get money for the little guy.  So it will hopefully help me pay his bills. 

If i don't get enough to cover his bills I will figure it out. I wouldn't change going to get him for the world.  I just cant imagine anyone could ever treat an animals soo poorly.  Rocko came into my life for a reason and I will do all I can to make sure the rest of his life is an amazing one.  

If you are not able to help its ok.  Trust me i understand.  Please help Rocko by spreading the word to others.  Thank you for taking the time to read this.
