Twitter Used to Raise Funds to Save Injured Dog after Rescue

by Myke on May 26, 2009

Two College Station Texas room mates found an injured dog left by the side of a road. Since the dog was a pit bull the duo knew he would be euthanized if they took him to a shelter so they decided to rescue him by first taking him to a veterinarian for the necessary care of his injuries. His left front leg and part of his tail required amputation. They named him Caesar.

Jamie and her roommate Connie used Twitteri to publicize Caesar’s plight. Hoping to get maybe a quarter of the money needed for Caesar’s vet bill, they received $485 in four days! This covered the vet bill of $400 and the rest will be used for his food during his rehabilitation and foster until he finds a forever home. (Examiner.com)
