I need help with contacting the right authorities, for what i believe is a malnourished dog!?

Call the SPCA and any pitbull rescues in your area.

Call again if you feel the dog's condition is worse than it was when they came out before. Explain to them that the dog has gotten worse since they were last out.

If the dog is NOT worse, then perhaps there is a reason for the dog being underweight. I have 2 dogs that I keep somewhat thin due to one having had knee surgery and arthritis and being a little underweight is better for her joints. The other is a few pounds underweight due to all 4 legs being malformed and again, being a lighter weight is better for her in her condition. So just because a dog looks a bit 'skinny' doesn't necessarily mean it's being mistreated.

So I'd call them if you think the dog has gotten worse and alert them to the situation and then let them handle it.

Well performed for taking her in. Start feeding her bland meals, like rice and chook or meat combined. Puppy meals could also be a well begin, smooth and rainy if her tooth are unhealthy. She will certainly scoff the lot, however do not be tempted to feed her a large quantity to begin with, as she'll mainly be unwell. Small and normally is first-class. Some dog milk (if to be had) in small quanities will aid as good. She additionally demands to recognize that the meals will hold coming, as a substitute than the existence she's been dwelling. Also, be certain you wash your palms after touch, earlier than you contact your possess puppies. Her foremost predicament will mainly be worms, however do not bug her but, till she places on a bit of of weight otherwise you see the vet.

well i wouldnt call the shelter bc if hes so skinny tht u can see his ribs as well as u discribed thn they will put him down so i think you should call the ASPCA again bc the owners obviously didnt feel like taking a warning to care for this poor animal, also i think you can request to adopt it after hes all healed up if you call the ASPCA. thats what id do =/ good luck

Call Animal Services or ASPCA again maybe when they came out there the dog was not as serve as when you saw it.

Call the shelter they will come out a Access the problem and need be remove the dog.

call the ASPCA, and they will handle it...and they wont put the dog down if its adoptable and can regain its health.

You need to MYOB. If ASPCA came out, and didn't find anything wrong, why would you call again? I have Border Collies who work, and one is a bone rack, and gets plenty to eat. Some dogs are just thin.

call both and see what both of them will do

"He had outside just a bowl with water and a pillow"

Were you expecting him to have a flat screen TV and an all you can eat buffet?

Once my dogs eat their food, they are "just left" with a bowl of water.

If the authorities deemed the dog to not be in danger, then you need to mind your own business.

If you think the dogs condition has deteriorated then go ahead and call again.
