Hero dog needs help....
I called the vet hospital and will donate money.
HERO DOG SEEKS NEW LEASH ON LIFE
By LORENA MONGELLI
June 19, 2007 -- This quick-witted dog has held burglars at bay, scared off neighborhood punks and warded off would-be robbers. And now his owner has a chance to save his life in return.
Hercules, an adorable German shepherd, has a brain tumor that will kill him if it's not removed.
But with a rookie police salary, Officer Jamal Charles, 22, doesn't have the money to cover the treatment.
"I would do everything for him, he's family," said Charles, who's been a Bronx parks cop for 16 months.
Charles says his 12-year-old pooch once scared off muggers and another time alerted his family when they were burglarized.
Long Island Veterinary Specialists recently discovered the pooch has a deadly brain tumor and needs surgery.
Dominic Marino, chairman of the Plainview hospital, will waive the $4,500 surgery bill, but Charles needs at least $3,500 to cover post-operative care.
