Bye Bye Death Row!

This is a unique story as this was a call for help. Urgent help as a dog sat on death row in Elizabethtown, NC shelter. One of the wonderful fosters we transport to was putting together a rescue for this dog and two puppies and asked if we could transport once everything was finalized, we accepted without hesitation. Once we got the word we were on our way to pick up the dog and the two puppies. The dog sitting on death row is Jerry, he was an owner surrender and had been at the shelter for months and was going kennel crazy, they said he was aggressive and to be careful. We got to the shelter and put the two puppies in crate and got them in the vehicle, we then met Jerry. We never judge an animal based on another opinion we take it into consideration but we fell out the animal with our own judgement once we are in the presence of the animal. We met Jerry he was tail wagging happy. We put our slip leash on him walked him to the vehicle and he got in, we were off! He sat quietly in the truck the whole time looking out the windows. Our owner fostered Jerry and the two puppies for two hours at her home. He showed no anxiety or aggression towards me, the puppies or my dogs. I kept him a pin in my house just to be safe. He ate treats and went outside to go potty. He did great. We loaded them up again and drove them an hour north to meet the foster Mom, they slept the whole time. They were loaded up into her vehicle with no issues. We are so excited to have been able to save his life and the puppies. We wish them all the best in starting their new journey! Many thanks to the rescue, Silvia and the foster Mom for saving their lives!
