This Abused Starved Dog Was Thrown Down A Trash Chute. Then, A Miracle Happened.

Meet Patrick. At first, your heart will cringe at the sight of him. Patrick was found wrapped in a garbage bag and stuffed down a chute. A garbage truck was ready to take him away, until he was rescued at the last moment.

11. I did too -- it's just whether the OP decides to put the photo in the post, or allow people to open

the OP and then click through if they want to see pictures.

8. She got off with probation? Ugh.

And I actually have to give Chris Christie kudos for upping the possible penalties for non-human animal abuse in NJ... Good for him. He may be a jerk to humans, but he's got a soft spot for dogs at least.

That's a horrible photo to come across with no warning.
