Injured

Stevenson, a Sharpei mix was picked up as a stray in the city of Chicago. When found, he was dirty, hungry and underweight, but what surprised Chicago Animal Care and Control (CACC) was that he could hardly keep his eyes open to see, yet somehow he was surviving on the city streets.

Felines & Canines, a Chicago based no-kill animal shelter, rescued Sheba on July 5, 2014, after they successfully placed many of their own animals in forever homes on July 4th. When they met Sheba, their hearts broke and they new they had to pull her and try to save her.

Laura Vera says:

On May 31, 2014, Fin a nine-year-old husky lab mix, injured his paws while on a three-mile hike with his owner Julia Jones in the Sandia Mountains, New Mexico. The injury stopped the pet on his tracks and police officers were called to rescue the pet and help carry him down the trail path.

It was 90 degrees on that day and Jones along a friend decided to go on a short hike.

On June 3, 2014, a dog’s life was saved thanks to Washington’s Engine 76 firefighters, who were at the right place and at the right time. The hero rescuers witnessed when a car hit a female dog on 180th Street Southeast near Highway 9, and right away they rushed the innocent animal to a nearby vet clinic.
