Help Anthony Corso and his dogs

On Tuesday, April 11th, Anthony Corso was a victim of a hit and run while walking his dogs in the Forbes Avenue area of New Haven and left for dead.

Anthony has a passion for taking care of homeless dogs, at one point caring for 5 dogs at the same time. Because of this, Anthony became homeless himself because no one would rent him an apartment with his 5 dogs. As a result, Anthony chose to live in his van along with his 5 dogs rather than give them up. He now has 3 dogs which are being cared for by the New Haven Animal Shelter.

Over the past few weeks, Anthony has undergone several surgeries which include knee surgery, ligament replacement, ankle surgery and fractured tibia. Anthony also has a traumatic brain injury, a broken eye socket and fractured facial bones. He has a tracheotomy and feeding tube.

Prayers were answered this past week when Anthony finally opened his eyes. He is still not able to speak or respond to movement requests.

Anthony has a very long road ahead of him and will require acute physical therapy once he is discharged from the hospital. It is way too early to predict the extent of his brain injury and what life holds for him in the future.

Please keep Anthony in your prayers. Any shares or Donations would be greatly appreciated and helpful in providing necessary resources for Anthony's recovery and will help in caring for his dogs.
