Residential Cleanout

Property Cleanout with Abandoned Dog

 

 

This still haunts me! I was called to quote on a project where the renter had abandoned the property and the owner had called us in to provide him with a quote for a property cleanout and remodeling. The front door was open because squatters had slug hammered the door knobs off and entered the home. As we entered the home I immediately smelled a the foul odor of dog urine and poop. As I pushed through the home the abandoned furniture, the kitchen and the bathrooms were in horrible shape. Not like a hoarder situation but very dirty. I then started making my way throught bedrooms. The first was not to bad with a mattress on the floor and little more. By instinct I slowly began to open the second bedroom. Not that I was expecting anything really, but for some reason I did not just swing the door open.

And then I heard it! Something was alive and slowly moving in the Room

I immediately closed the door and turned to the owner of the property and said. "Did you hear that?" and the owner replied. "Yes, what is that?" Then when we heard a faint blow of air. I have a dog and I know the sound, it was that sound that a dog makes when it wants to fight or attack. There was a dog abandoned in the house. But for how long had it been locked in this room. I remember, the quick glance of poop all over the floor from what I could see. But I still did not see the dog yet, the room was completely dark. So I went around the side of the house out side to peek through the window. To see what was in there. The room was dark and it was the middle of the day. So I turned on the flash light of my phone in order to see in the room.

It was Horrible!

There it was. A boney, Pitt Bull. To weak to bark or fight. It was barely holding on to life itself. The dog looked terrified and my heart was breaking. How long had this dog been locked in this room without food or water. We immediately called animal control to come and save / remove the dog. It was a bit traumatic for me, but after 6 years in this business I have seen a lot.
