A dog that was found near death in New Jersey has been nursed back to life. The dog had barely any skin over its bones when someone tossed it down a trash chute in Newark. The lucky dog they are calling “Patrick the miracle dog” is recovering.
UPDATE:
An x-ray has revealed an obstruction in Patrick’s intestines. In light of his current state of weakness, he is unable to undergo surgery to remove whatever the obstruction is.
The Vets think it could be something he eat out of desperation while nearly starving to death.
Also, there has been an award offered. AHS/Popcorn Park is offering a $2000 reward for the arrest and conviction of the person responsible for abusing Patrick.
Sorry Patrick….I can’t take you for many reasons but I’m “very happy?” that still some one with a hart and love left to recognize the value of a “pet”.
GOD BLESS all that provide for his recuperation….now it is one more GOOD heart left arroiund that neighbrwood ?
You are special and God is watching over you. You are a fighter and I would be more than honor to give you a forever home. I live in Florida and if I could I’d come get you in a heart beat!!!! I have 2 cocker spaniels and when I read a story that concerns an animal, it makes me appreciate and love my dogs more than anything in this world. You will find a forever home and be loved the way you should have been. I hope & pray they catch that sob person and they get whats coming to them. I have no pity on anyone that abuses an animal. I love you, Patrick!!!!!
No words can describe what I feel for the person that did this. Thank God Patrick was saved. I hope they find the …….. who did this and charge them. Bless you Patrick, and those who take care of him.
If he had obstruction in Intestines..couldn’t that have caused his condition? It is easier for my pea brain t think that first than to imagine a person could do this..Many blessing Patrick..I pray you know love & kindness the rest of your life here..
No, the obstruction couldn’t do this. His nails are so long he never walked 😮 His owner didn’t take care of him. Beyond that I cannot think of how this can happen. They have caught the person now, did her friends and family know the dog was neglected, the neighbors, kids in the area. Someone told on her or she had her other garbage in the bag with the dog.
Now she’s in cains locked up abandoned “what goes around comes around.”
Then why was he in a garbage chute???
This makes me sooooo angry. As far as I am concerned any human who does something like this to an animal should be killed. I don’t care about whatever bull$h@t they say happened to them in the past. A person who is capable of this does NOT deserve to be on this planet.
I feel so terrible that Patrick had to go through this, and as a dog-lover, I understand everyone’s anger towards whoever abused this poor dog, but it’s also important to consider that the person who did this was probably very mentally ill. The person may be suffering from a variety of mental illnesses, as cruelty to animals is a particular symptom for some of them. More often than not, people with severe mental illnesses don’t understand their own actions. I’m glad that Patrick is getting help, but if it’s determined that the person who abused him is suffering from severe mental illness, it’s important for him to get help, as well. Of course if the abuser isn’t mentally ill and merely did this out of neglect, then more serious actions should be taken.
Don’t make this about mental illness. Just b/c someone is mentally I’ll doesn’t mean they are more likely than someone who’s not to abuse an animal. Antisocial and borderline personality disorders are aka sociopaths. Those are the type of people who not only abuse animals but people. Neither are mental illnesses.
I think it is more important to get this person into jail ! How many people will plead not guilty because of mentally illness? That’s (sorry) bs !
That is the meanest thing. How can someone have the heart to do that to any animal. I hope whoever did it just gets a horrible disease and dies. This isnt a shocker knowing that people kill other people so ofcourse they will mistreat their pets. Humans are the most cruel animals on planet earth. Atleast animals kill for food and survival. Humans just get a kick out of watching other animals in pain. Disgusting…..
I TRIED TO WATCH THE VIDEO BUT IT WOULD NOT WORK! BUT I SAW THIS POOR PUPPY’S PICTURE AND I DON’T EVEN KNOW HOW HE SURVIVED THIS! GOD BLESS PATRICK AND MAY YOU HAVE A BEAUTIFUL LIFE FROM THIS MOMENT ON. AND THE PERSON WHO DID THIS TO YOU…MAY HE ROT IN HELL! I WILL BE PRAYING FOR YOU PATRICK.
Patrick is God’s creation – he feels pain, he feels hunger – I hope they find the cruel SOB who did this.
a couple of years ago I accidentally saw a bird was dying. It was to late to do something :(.. I felt sick for almost 3 days..How cruel someone can be to watch this innocent dog is suffering :((.. What is worng with people!
Mah, I am so glad that I am not the only one that feels that. I also had to help a dying bird that was beyond any help besides put out of misery. IT was the worst feeling ever. I do not understand how someone could sit by and watch their animal dying .. what really is going thru your mind to let that happen. I can not understand it….
i love you PATRICK !!!! I am thinking of you 100times a day.Get well and b Loved.
I hope that worthless,SOB Dies ASAP. Get him off the planet. if I could i would do it right now!!!! Bastard.. Get Well Baby Boy GO PATRICK! !..

Dear Little Patrick I will pray every day that you get better and find your forever home, that is filled with lots
of love for a very special boy. You deserve to be happy and loved. Thank you to all the Dr’s and helpers
who are taking care of this beautiful baby boy. I would like to see the person/persons who did this get charged a FELONY AND NEVER BE ALLOWED TO HAVE ANOTHER ANIMAL EVER.
Get Well Patrick! God Bless the person who found him and the Doctors and assistants who are
caring for him. I hope the evil person who is responsible for his condition are brought to justice.
Patrick I hope they find who ever did this to you. You are a special dog and deserve a life of love,security and happiness.

She’s been caught!!! Now she should be starved to death.
will patrick get a home when he gets well?
I love Patrick
It’s not your time Patrick. Your purpose here has yet to be filled. Your special. What comes around, goes around. In time, they’ll get theirs.
I believe that know who owned this dog…Kisha Curtis, a 28-year old New Jersey IS THE MONSTER THAT DID THIS…She will pay for her crime.
Patrick…..you are a very fortunate doggie because someone cared. That maintenance person that discovered your plastic bag that was moving just a little saved you. He is, indeed, a hero and should be recognized as one. God bless you, Patrick and all those caring people that are nursing you back to health.
We really care that you’ll continue your excellent progress. You’ve got real guts and so many of us really love you.

That pathetic excuse for a human being who did this to poor Patrick, Kisha Curtis is her name, should just do everyone, Patrick included, a huge favor and commit suicide. Her DNA needs to be forever eliminated from the human gene pool. What a total piece of walking, breathing s*** she is. There is simply no place in civilized society for savage, utterly evil-to-the-core monsters such as Kisha Curtis. She doesn’t need to be punished; she and her ilk need to be eliminated. Period. I’m sure her parents must be so proud of her.
Agreed.
(Except for the last sentence — I wonder if her parents are monsters, too.)
The poor wee guy, he’s just a walking skeleton. It is heartbreaking to see what someone can do to such a defenceless animal. By his bone structure I think he should be at least 6 to 9 months old. Even after everything Patrick has been through he is still seeking love from others. The expression on his face while nurse or vet holding his chin in palm of their hand is as if he is soaking up the love coming to him through the hand.
Yes serial killers and such like always start on animals before they progress to humans.
When are the powers that be going to recognize that abusing an animal is no different to abusing a human, actually I think it is worse, and charge them accordingly.
If person abuses another person they get jail time etc so should an abuser of animals.
I do hope Patrick eventually gets a really great home, but please really check them out 1st and keep a close eye on him to make he is doing well.
Dear Patrick, we are praying you are better soon. People that do this to animals deserve to be punished, if you do not want your pet, please give them to someone before you abuse them. There are shelters that will make sure they are taken care of.
Congratulations to the maintenance people who found Patrick in the dumpster and got him to the correct vets. These people are, also, heroic.
sweet angel-praying for your recovery and a new forever home with someone who will love and cherish you-i hope your previous owner rots in hell for the torment she put you through
I just can’t imagine who could do this to an animal of any kind much less mans best friend.
Whoever did this should be jailed. My hats off to the people who are helping Patrick return to health.
Good luck PATRICK!! We are praying for you.
Glad they caught the louse that did this to Patrick-although I know that won’t, they need to starve her and put her in a garbage bag too!!!!!!!!
This is so sad my prayers to Patrick no best friend should have to go thru this: “(
Aww i was been thinking of this beautiful doggie all day after yesterday when I read the story about what happened to him, it was one of the most upsetting things I have ever seen but i’m so glad his being looked after now xx
Does anyone know how Patrick is? Has he left the hospital? Has he been adopted by someone? Are there any June pics of him? I’m sure he’s doing v well, but it would be nice to see follow-up.
Patrick is a darling and I am so glad he was saved. All the people who helped him along the way are blessed by God. I can not look at this beautiful dog without crying. Cruelty is a terrible thing but mercy and nursing him back to health is a wonderful thing. Bless you sweet Patrick.
poor patrick! the women needs to be starved and put in a garbage bag and thrown down the shoot and see how she likes it and maybe someone should let her out in a year or two.
What a beast she is!!!!! She should be tied up and left to starve. Yeah, slap her on the wrist and let her walk. She’ll be back for something else sooner or later.
