On August 23rd the GBI went to serve an arrest warrant for suspects involved in the multi-state dog
fighting bust. When they arrived at the house, the suspects were not there, but there were several
dogs present, including Roo. The other dogs were not quite as bad off as our little Roo. Dekalb
County Animal Services took all of the dogs into their care and arrested the woman that owns the
house.
When we met Roo, we knew Friends of Dekalb Animals had to find a way to help her. We worked with the
county to coordinate her release to foster and are sponsoring all of her medical bills. Roo needs
an orthopedic specialist to help “fix” her front legs. We already have her appointment set up. Roo
will have to remain in the county as”evidence” during the case, but thanks to her foster home, she
can live in a home instead of at the shelter. When the case is over, she will be looking for a loving
forever home.
