Poor Vucko

Ever since I first read about the fate of the German Shephard named Vucko I have been sickened by how people could do this to a poor animal. Vucko obviously meant no harm, if he had those boys would not have been able to tape the firecracker in his mouth and set it off.
I haven't really followed up on what happened and if he got justice but last time I checked the petition was still online waiting to be signed so if you haven't signed the petition to find justice for this poor animal visit my previous blog where you will find the link to the petition CLICK

Eventhough I have not been following up on the progress of getting the boys who did this to this poor animal a proper punishment, that does not mean I am forgetting about the cruesome pictures I saw when reading into this. The pictures I used on my blog before, the video of the examination done by the vet and most of all I can not forget how horrible this dog's last days must have been. I can't imagine having to wonder around missing part of my body, unable to drink or eat, unable to defend myself, not having a warm place to sleep or a roof to find cover from the rain. This poor dog had no place to stay, no warm place to sleep and was unable to eat or drink for days while he wandered around in agonizing pain. He lost half of his face and the wound had become infected and maggots had covered the wound in those few days. Can you imagine having to wander around like that?
I know I am not the only one who is sickened by this, I know you care about Vucko too, enough to let your voice be heard? Please sign the petition!

Eventhough the post about Vucko is more then a month old, it still receives views every day. If everybody who views signs that petition we will be a step in the right direction!

Now, I have had some replies of people who I told this to that things like this happen everywhere and I know it is true but not everywhere this dog would have been left on the street to fend for himself. There are people who could be called and the dog would have been captured and brought to a vet straight away, at least that is how it is here. I know it is like that in other countries as well but not where Vucko was born.

Now, this blog is not finished without some pictures, you all know I love pictures and with a blog like this I just feel like they belong on this post so people can see what happened, so people know that I am not just saying something when I say his face was blown off but I want to start with something different. I want to start with YOU!!
Yes, you read that right! I want to start with you all and you know why? Every time I get on here to post something I look at my statistics, I am just curious to see where my blog is viewed (and still am amazed by the number of views from America and Russia. I often wonder how you all stumble onto my blog!) and every time I get surprised by how many people actually read my Vucko blog. I know alot may come for the pictures and alot my have dropped out of my rambling post by now but still, I hope the pictures have convinced everybody that something has to be done!

The number of people who viewed the blog about Vucko are remarkably high if you see the rest of the views from the other posts

Every search in the top 10 searches is about Vucko.

And now I warn you, the next pictures are extremely horrible, these are pictures I just found and (as far as I remember) have not used before. I find some of them even more shocking then the pictures of the last blog. For one time I will not end my rambling with enjoy but with the warning that if you have a wear stomach you might NOT want to watch this!

Vucko, the dog who got his face blown off

I bet some of you might not care about the previous post I made about the animals suffering for furcoats. About how they were skinned alive and how that one raccoon was still able to lift it's head and look at his body, and the bodies surrounding his, after it was skinned. But this is more serious (not that the animals dying for fur is not serious but still....) and I think it will shock many of who read this blog.

Here’s the horrible tale of what happened to Vucko, the German Shepherd.

Two intoxicated youths in Bosnia duct-taped a firework in a German Shepherd’s mouth and blew off his face. But the torture didn’t stop there. The poor dog, known as Vucko, wandered in agony for five days, unable to eat and with maggots infecting the meaty pulp of his ruined face. Vucko was finally picked up by authorities and euthanized after vets were unable to perform reconstructive surgery.

Unfortunately, Vucko was euthanized, but his death doesn’t have to be in vain. This tragedy is a perfect opportunity to promote animal abuse awareness in an area where animal rights are practically nonexistent.

We must bring the animal abusers to justice and ensure that this inhumanity is never repeated; sadly, animal welfare laws are practically nonexistent in much of Eastern Europe. Sign this petition urging Bosnian authorities to hunt down the guilty parties, expose the severity of animal abuse, and create proper legislation that will protect animals. Don't let Vucko die in vain!
