Save-A-Pet Seeks Help for Badly Burned Dog Left to Die
July 16, 2007

Donations are needed to help "Maximus," a mix breed who was chained to a tree, doused with gasoline and set on fire this past week. The badly burned animal was taken to the Veterinary Medical Center of Long Island for emergency care by a concerned resident.

Maximus has 2nd and 3rd degree burns over 60% of his body and so far he has already incurred over $3,000 in medical expenses. However, his vet and Dori Scofield, Founder/Director of Save-A-Pet Animal Rescue believe his chances for survival are good.

Despite his terrible ordeal and the brutality he has endured, Maximus appears to hold no grudges and is alert and friendly to everyone at the VMCLI, wagging his tail and licking the staff caring for him.

"We can't allow such horrific crimes to be committed against our companion animals. Although Maximus has made progress, he needs a great deal of treatment and has a long road of recovery ahead," according to Ms. Scofield. With love and proper medical care, Scofield is hopeful that Save-A-Pet will be able to find a forever home for Maximus.

Maximus was found in Brentwood, but neither his owners or the perpetrators have been found.

it's bad enough the dogs owner would leave him- but to set him on fire- they should be set on fire

I just wrote a $100 check to mail to save a pet.

I am sick over this. I saw it on the news and had to change the channel.

Where is the animal who did this? What comes around goes around I hope.

I really hope that Maximus is getting all the donations he needs. Thank god for the citizen who took him to the vet and for the wonderful people working to save him.

I love how even after all he's been through he still shows love Chat Icon

He is in SUCH good hands at that vet (that's where we take Coop).

How can a person be so inhumane?! It makes me so sad. Chat Icon I'm so glad that Save-A-Pet will go above and beyond to help this dog find a new home.
