Social networking sites are all the rage; to keep in touch with friends and family, for business, for networking and much more. Two college students used one social networking site, Twitter, to do something very special, save a severely wounded pitbull. Found on the side of the road, one of the dog’s front legs was in such bad shape it would need amputation and they also knew that a trip to the local shelter meant a death sentence for the dog they named Caesar.
So the two young College Station, TX women, Jamie Whitt and Connie Donnellan, animal lovers and rescuers, turned to Twitter and tweeted away, sharing information and asking for help. They were amazed when people came through in a incredible way. They had hoped to be able to cover at least a potion of the medical bill with donations but to their surprise a total of $485 in donations came in completely taking care of the $400 bill and leaving some for the additional care that Caesar will be needing.
Now they will be working to find a wonderful home for this sweet tripod pitbull.
Excellent work Jamie and Connie! Hope that Ceasar is doing better soon and finds a wonderful home.
Wow. This renews a wounded opinion of human beings. Kudos to these wonderful young people, who used modern technology for the good of one of our most vulnerable fellow beings. I’m just knocked over,happily, by their compassion and action.
I just LOVE these wonderful, young people!!!!!
My heart has grown while reading this.
Fantastic work girls! The previous owner was obviously not an animal lover. The dog looks to me like a dalmation cross though, but no matter. Wonderful young woman.
WOW! WTG girls! Your family’s must be so proud of you. You girls were most assuredly raised correctly and with a great deal of love and respect for our four legged counter parts. I just know Caeser will find a beautiful furever home. He has a huge heart and great will to survive. As for the POS that left him there to die….well, we all know that person’s fate. God Bless you Jamie and Connie. You deserve all the best in your lifes and I’m sure it will come your way.
Wonderful work girls..and thank you from those who cannot speak for themselves !! This sweet dog is going to need some more help though…with being a heavy chested dog and a bit overweight..he will need a cart to help him get around or will soon be crippled with arthritis in that other shoulder. I do hope you will get in touch with a wonderful company called “Eddies Wheels”…they make custom carts for animals and do have many with front end carts !! Hopefully you will be able to do more fund raising and get the funds for a cart for this special boy !! Good luck and thanks again !

WTG!!! hang in there, Cesar, a home is out there for u, dude. hugs
Its nice to know after all the idiots we read about , we see how intelligent and caring people act .Way to go girls , Ceaser looks like a doll
Caesar looks like he is doing fairly well and what wonderful young ladies these are. I have to agree with Jessie that they were raised properly. Young people can be an asset to society and do good things, and I hope people take note as to what just happened. You can do so much if you are willing to ask. That has just been proven. I have a feeling that more and more people are starting to realize that. We just need to get the rest of the people to follow suit. There isn’t any reason why we can’t all live in harmony and be there for one another. The lovely young ladies just proved that it does work. I would be interested in seeing how things turn out for Caesar when he finally heals.
It is young people such as these gals who make me feel better about the human race. WTG girls! I just wish more people, not just the younger generation, all people, would act as these two have. Thank you for being there for beautiful Ceasar. Despite the fact that one leg was amputated, I am sure he will find a loving home, because now he knows there are good people out there who have hearts. Please keep us informed as to how well he is getting along, and that he has found a happy home to call his own furever.
Excellent work. I just wish more people like you.Good luck and take care
