Here’s the latest….

Maybe it is an appropriate coincidence that this dog named Mercy was taken to a no-kill shelter on Good Friday.

Her story is horrible and she’s fighting for her life. (Warning: Photos are graphic and may be upsetting.)

From this picture of her face, with cuts and scrapes around her head and shoulders, you can see that Mercy has the look of a dog that doesn’t know what’s coming next but expects that it will be bad.

She’s in the care of Operation Kindness. “Her prognosis is very guarded right now,” says Executive Director Jonnie England. “We’re just hoping infection doesn’t set in. With so many deep wounds and the top layer of skin being gone, that’s a very real possibility.”

Two young men brought the injured dog to the shelter from their North Dallas neighborhood on Friday afternoon. The Operation Kindness staff named her Mercy.

As you can see from the second photo, she has been abused — abused until she stands there raw and torn on her sides and severely injured in other parts of her body. The third photo, below, shows such awful damage.

Jonnie says one of the guys who brought Mercy to the shelter “saw her in the tree behind his apartment complex and spent 20 minutes trying to get her.

“He said they didn’t know where else to take her except to us. We immediately took her to one of the vets who works with us.” She quickly got fluids, antibiotics and painkillers.

“About an hour later,” Jonnie says, “We got a call from a young lady who said she knew who had abused the dog and told me what she witnessed. At this time we don’t want to reveal too many details, but Mercy’s injuries include being kicked and stabbed multiple times and left to die. The vet thinks she also has chemical burns and she may have been dragged behind a car.”

Yet, in the company of loving people, Mercy, perhaps 10 months old, remains “wonderfully gentle and calm,” Jonnie says.

“At the vet’s office, one of our vet techs, Melissa, sat down on the floor to comfort Mercy, who touched noses with her, then tucked her head into Melissa’s shoulder and closed her eyes.”

*To help pay Mercy’s bills, contact Operation Kindness at: 972-418-PAWS or go to:Operation Kindness

Now the waiting game is underway: Waiting for the dog to triumph, waiting for justice to be applied. And waiting to see if Mercy’s most severe wound was to her heart.
