A severely malnourished dog found wandering a Fort Lauderdale street weighing barely 19 pounds is now under emergency veterinary care in Deerfield Beach as rescuers work to nurse her back to health.The dog, named Tony, is estimated to be about 2 years old. When a Good Samaritan discovered her and turned her in, she was starving, dehydrated, and anemic reduced to skin and bones.Cindy Maccacio, with Pompano Beach-based I Heart Dog Rescue, stepped in to take over her care."There's not one ounce of fat on her. I mean, she's bone," Maccacio said. "It was really devastating to see how severely malnourished and emaciated she was, so I would be concerned that if she wasn't found in the next couple of days, she probably would have passed."Tony is currently being treated at Deer Run Animal Hospital in Deerfield Beach. Dr. Sarah Gangadin, who has been overseeing her care for about a week, said the dog has not yet gained or lost weight because her nutritional intake must be carefully regulated."If
