\"Neglected<\/a>

Pictured is Parrot, in before and after photos. Parrot has been adopted since he was confiscated from a home where he was found tied up and severely neglected. The dog\u2019s owner, Lisa Wagner, age unknown, of 262 Tappan Rd. in Newark Valley, N.Y., was subsequently charged with overdriving, torturing and injuring animals, and will be returning to court in Newark Valley on May 12 at 3:30 p.m. to answer those charges.

Many remember the recent story about Parrot, the five-year-old black lab that was seized from a Newark Valley, N.Y. residence when Stray Haven\u2019s Humane Officer, Cindy Webster, discovered the dog was living in deplorable conditions, and was suffering from a tumor that had grown to baseball size on his face.<\/p>\n

According to Webster, at that time, the dog was living in horrific conditions with food merely thrown on the ground for him, and his running chain was so inadequate that his feet could barely touch the ground and he could not reach the inappropriate shelter that Lisa Wagner had set up for him.<\/p>\n

Lisa Wagner, age unknown, of 262 Tappan Rd. in Newark Valley, N.Y. was subsequently charged with several violations of the Ag and Markets Law, Article 26. She will be returning to court in Newark Valley Court on May 12 at 3:30 p.m. to further answer to these charges, which include \u201coverdriving, torturing and injuring animals\u201d and \u201cproviding inappropriate shelter\u201d, both misdemeanors.<\/p>\n

According to the ASPCA, an amendment to section 353 of Article 26, in which the charges fall under, raised the maximum permissible fine in 1985 from $500 to $1,000 for the committed offense.<\/p>\n

Following Parrot\u2019s seizure, a fund was set up at GoFundMe that raised nearly $3,000 for needed surgery to remove Parrot\u2019s tumor in less than 48 hours following his seizure from the residence.<\/p>\n

The surgery was performed shortly after at Spencer Animal Hospital to remove the tumor from Parrot\u2019s face. According to Webster, there is no scar from the surgery, and Parrot looks amazing.<\/p>\n

There is also a happy ending for Parrot, who recently landed his forever home. The woman who adopted Parrot had followed the case, as it touched her heart, and even had a shrine for Parrot on her refrigerator.<\/p>\n

This same woman was recently at Stray Haven to find a mate for a dog she adopted from the shelter ten years ago. But while there, she saw Parrot.<\/p>\n

According to Webster, she had no idea that Parrot was still at the shelter when she came searching for another pet, and was ecstatic to find he was still there.<\/p>\n

She didn\u2019t have to think twice, and immediately adopted Parrot into her loving home. On her way out, she thanked the shelter for allowing her to be Parrot\u2019s forever home.<\/p>\n

The shelter would like to thank all who contributed to Parrot\u2019s fund, for the prayers and tender loving care that volunteers and community members offered to Parrot, and to Dr. Roxanne Sullivan from the Spencer Animal Hospital. They would also like to thank their staff for caring for Parrot, as well as one volunteer in particular, Donna Striley, who spent many hours walking, playing, and helping care for Parrot.<\/p>\n

There are many wonderful companion animals, like Parrot, that are awaiting a forever home. If you would like to learn more about how you can give a homeless pet a forever home, contact Stray Haven located at 194 Shepard Rd. in Waverly, N.Y., or call (607) 565-2859 for more information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
