OUR MOST RECENT DOG RESCUE
"On Saturday the 13 of June 09 we got a call from the 911 Dispatch-Center about a dog needing rescue.The dog was found tied to a rock near the river on the bluff of Mayhew Rd. Sheriff and the Montgomery County Rescue Squad where on site to help the poor little dog who was obviously scared and in danger of drowning.
He got a ride back to the Montgomery County Rescue Station at "1 Providence Boulevard", where I picked him up. The dog was given the name " River" since this was where he was found. He is a very loving Little Boston Terrier Mix about 1 Yr. old
The following article is from the local paper under Crime Watch !!!
"An abandoned dog left on the river bluff on Mayhew Road was rescued by emergency workers Saturday evening.
According to a Montgomery County incident report, a couple who was fishing found a dog tied to a rock in the 100 block of Mayhew Road.
The couple untied the dog, which was too scared to leave.
Second Chance and Happy Tails picked the dog up after its rescue."
Pictures of the rescue below.
River after being rescued. He is very well trained.

All the rescuers. What a happy dog!
Second Chance & Happy Tails is a non profit organization, relying on donations and fundraisers to maintain our much needed service. Most of the animals, including River, come to us either abused, abandoned and/or neglected. Many need extensive, long term care and cannot be adopted. Because we are a no kill shelter, we keep any animal that we are unable to adopt to a good home.
We are currently housing over 40 dogs and puppies, all of whom need regular medical care, grooming and of course daily care. (feeding, laundry, bathing etc) The vet bills alone can reach in the 10's of thousands of dollars every year. We simply can't do it alone.
Will you help us?
