Two dogs are receiving the care they need after being dumped out of a car in Orange County.According to the Orange County Animal Services’ Facebook page, its team assisted law enforcement on July 14 after someone said they observed two dogs being pushed out of a vehicle.When the vehicle attempted to drive away, the dogs were close by, and one of the dogs was hit by the car.The post goes on to say that the “dog became lodged under the vehicle, which dragged him for a short distance before the dog was able to emerge and the vehicle fled.”Calvin and Hobbs are the two loving micro-bullies who were involved in the incident. An organization called Furever Bully Love Rescue answered the call for help after animal services reached out to its rescue partners asking if someone could take in the two dogs.”The one that was dragged went to an overnight vet right away because he needed nine staples, and he needed six staples on his forehead,” Tanisha Branchick, vice president of Furever Bully Love Rescue, said. “Hobbs, unfortunately, due to the extent of his injuries, he suffered nerve damage. He’s going to need an amputation, which is actually scheduled for the end of this week.”Branchick said Hobbs’ amputation surgery costs $3,100, and they need the public’s help to support and care for him.She said people can donate on their Facebook page or Instagram. People can also call Crystal Creek Animal Hospital in Orlando, where Hobbs will get his surgery, to donate.Calvin wasn’t injured in the incident and is currently with a foster. He is available for adoption. After his surgery, Hobbs can go to a foster until he’s medically cleared, and then he will be available for adoption.Branchick said she also hopes law enforcement can find the person or people responsible for dumping the dogs.”Somebody knows who these dogs belong to. Obviously, law enforcement can go ahead and move forward with charges because these are animal cruelty charges, but we can’t do that without knowing who their owners are,” Branchick said.WESH has contacted law enforcement for updates about the vehicle that may have hit the dogs or information about their owners. We are waiting to hear back. AUTHOR’S NOTE:Hobbs was referred to as Calvin on Orange County Animal Services’ Facebook page, but Branchick said both dogs have switched names.
