In a quiet South Milwaukee neighborhood no one noticed things at this house were a little too quiet.
When mail started piling up someone called the police. Police found a man dead inside of natural causes. What was unusual about his is police found the mans loyal doberman Trixie curled next to her owner on the couch.
The Milwaukee Area Domestic Control Center and police estimated the deceased owner and his dog had been in the house for nearly a month. Trixie was near death herself and was rushed to an animal emergency room. unknown, “The dog was very weak. Emaciated, laying next to it’s owner very sad…What that dog must have endured for that time period. She’s a sweet dog and she deserves a second chance.”
That’s exactly what Trixie will get, in just three days of care she gained back twelve pounds. She also gained the attention of many who saw her and heard about what happened. Trixie has captured the heart of a Vet Tech who saw her and is planning to give her a new home, and reason to be loyal. The new owner plans on adopting Trixie Tuesday.
