Watson - 3 Legged stray dog rescued late last night from Watts.
Last night I got a call from my friend Mona. She told me that her friend Kathy reported a dog with a broken leg in Watts. She also said that a bunch of people got into a huge aggressive fight on that location where little Watson was walking around and looking for food, and that she feared that this will turn to be a gun fight.
Watson got so scared of the commotion, and ran away onto a property where no one would be able to hurt him.
I headed out there immediately (I am sure most of you know that Watts is one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in Los Angeles) - definitely not a place to hang in the middle of the night.
I followed Kathy to the location where she last saw him, and after 5 minutes I found his exact location. It turned that he didn't have a broken leg, but he was missing a leg.
It took about 15 minutes to convince him to come with me.
This poor guy was crying in agony because he had so many ticks and fleas, but he didn't have a leg to scratch them off. After picking him up, I had ticks crawling on me, and while I cleaned him up at the hospital, my friend Stephanie Babcock picked ticks off of me.
The rescue was filmed, and in this video you'll see me using a new technique for saving a dog - I will make a maximum effort to put this video today!!
I will post the video here: www.youtube.com/eldad75 (You can subscribe, and once you do, stay with the mouse over the subscribe button, and you can click and ask to be notified every time I upload a new video).
Have a great day everybody ;-)
