The shelter volunteers are calling it “a near tragedy.”
Volunteer Amanda reported to feed the animals as she does nearly every Sunday. “Everything was fine in the cat room, but when I walked outside to check on the dogs, I knew something was wrong immediately!”
She sprang into action, quickly checking to make sure all dogs were accounted for and unharmed. Fortunately all are fine. However, none of the nearby dogs seem to know what happened.
“I ain’t did nothing,” said Millie. “Will you rub my belly now? And take me outside to play?”
According to nearby resident Blackie, “Snitches get stitches and I still need to be neutered so I have enough stitches in my future.”
We also talked to Calypso who is kenneled on Millie’s right, along with her puppy Echo. “I’m not sure what happened, but I sure hope the bed explosions are contained. I’m trying to raise a child here and as a single mother, I have a hard enough time of it. We need to move to a better neighborhood but until somebody steps up to help us out, this is all we got.”
Volunteer Debbie McDonald said she was the one who gave the bed to Millie but she had no idea it would explode. “I’m so sorry the dogs were all traumatized like this. I had no idea this bed would explode. I just wanted Millie to be comfortable. I’m just glad she’s ok!”
This is a developing story and we will report updates as they come in.
**The Friends of the Blakely Animal shelter is a group of volunteers dedicated to providing love and care to the unwanted and tossed away animals of Blakely, GA. We work in a small, city-run kill shelter in rural SW Georgia. You can check out our Facebook page The Friends of the Blakely Animal Shelter to see the positive impacts we’ve made. Help us continue help. The amount of this campaign is what it will cost to spay or neuter 10 animals from our shelter so they are ready to go to their fur-ever home when the right family shows up. We aren’t really going to purchase non-exploding dog beds. I don’t think those exist!
