Less than two weeks after our rescue of 33 dogs, our Animal Welfare & Response Team was back on the road to assist in the urgent rescue of another large group of pets in need. This time, it was 35 animals on a property in western Iowa.
When we arrived with authorities, we found dogs and puppies, rabbits, and birds living in filthy conditions. The floors of the home were covered in feces, and the dogs’ food was scattered on the same soiled floors. A state-certified veterinarian determined all of the animals needed to be removed for their own well-being.
Our dog kennels were full, and so were the emergency kennels we had constructed for the previous rescue, but these animals couldn’t wait. Just like our rescue team, our care team mobilized quickly, preparing additional overflow housing in yet another large room in the shelter. The animals are now all safe and receiving the love and care they need.
Vulnerable animals like these will always be counting on us, but we can only provide these critical rescue efforts with your support. Please make a gift now – or choose to give monthly – to ensure our skilled rescue team can keep being there to protect animals when they need it most.
YOU can provide this hope to animals with a gift today.
P.S.: When you give today or join our Loyal Friends Club monthly giving program, you’ll be automatically enrolled to receive updates on these animals.
