DON NOT LOOK AT THEM IF YOU KNOW YOU ARE GOING TO GET UPSET
My name is lucky lucy and today I was tied to a railway line so a train could hit me!
All i remember is that i was happy and playing, i was fed and didn’t go hungry, perhaps my owner did love me at one stage cause i lived well and warm, i was clean and had friends to play with and i found a boyfriend and carried his babies, but then suddenly for some reason something changed in my owner.
He went looking for a strong rope, something that couldn’t snap or get loose and he took me with him, which i thought would be the usual stroll you go on with your owner, but then we were at the train tracks and he grabbed me, took my back hind legs and stretched them out to be tied to my front legs, then my body, stretched, was tied to the railway line, then he took my head and tied it to the bolt that holds the track in place, my head must have been a centimeter away from the track.
Then he turned and walked away, didn’t even look back, i thought at first this must be a game but he disappeared. I didn’t k now what was going on, then i felt the vibration, then i saw this huge train coming at me and i couldn’t move, i tried with all my strength but i just couldn’t move……….
The train went over my leg, my paw was gone and my muscle had been ripped from my already smashed bone! I didn’t feel anymore, I just lay dead-still and waited to die cause a few more trains passed over me…..I just closed my eyes…..
Out of nowhere this man saw me, he screamed and ran away only to come back with two people, they jumped out the car and cut my neck and paws from the ropes. I don’t know if my life was now going to be over completely cause who would keep someone in my state alive?
But at the hospital I heard the lady and man say, “hold on for us girl, don’t give up, we will give you life!”
Now I will try my best to pull through, i know they are asking everyone to pray for me, so i will pray for me too
Lucy after her operation
She is slowly adjusting to the amputation, it will take her some time to get the “balance” right. She is however eating well and is at ease with both the vets around her as well as Richelle, the girl that saved her. This initial bond is strong and I am really pleased that Richelle is adopting Lucy – she could not have asked for a better home!
LUCKY LUCY WAS NOT RESCUED BY WETNOSE.
THE STORY IS ON OUR SITE FOR PUBLIC AWARENESS ONLY.

Dear Wet Nose,
I don’t understand how anyone can do such a thing to an animal… There is no words that can describe my emotions right now – it’s to much.
But thank God there is people like you and Richelle – THANK YOU and God bless.

Surely somebody from the Wellington area recognizes Lucky Lucy!
On Wednesday afternoon (Feb 10) I saw a man beating a dog with a branch on the corner of Swart & Rispel Streets in Kylemore. I was at the stop street as Swart turns left to the Helshoogte Rd. The house was opposite the stop street. The dog cowered and yelped and then ducked under a car for safety. I hooted at the man.
I immediately thought of Lucky Lucy and wondered if this man is capable of doing the same thing!
When I first saw the mail about this little dog. I thought (and hoped) that I was seeing things. What kind of evil must someone have in them to do such an unthinkable act. How can they live with themselves?
I hope this piece of sh*t of a human being who did this will burn in hell one day. Lucy I pray for you…and may you have a beautiful life from now onwards.
Please publish more pics of her when she has recovered fully!!!
When I read this article yesterday I was furious!!!I was shocked that anyone could even think of doing such a thing!!
I live nearby a wetnose center and I would like to volenteer.
Please contact me.
NO! NO! NO! NO! This is unbelievable. I am heartbroken!!
How I wish I could strap the man responsible for this agony to the train-track so he can experience what this little sweet dog had to go through.
I have no words, and these pictures will stay with me forever.
Once again, thank you to the people who saved her life!
To think that such horrible things are happening to animals every day. It’s true that we can’t save them all, but those that are lucky enough to be saved, like Lucy, should be inspiration to people to speak up and do something about animal abuse and neglect when they witness it.
Well done to all involved in this rescue.
