" i've never heard of this group before. They'll be next to get some of my donated dollars."

The spokesman was on one of the cables and she said that owners in prior domestic disasters would evacuate and leave their dogs tied up on chains in the backyard.
Where they would drown.
Her advice-cut the dogs loose and give them a fighting chance, if you won't or can't take them with you.
Last night, there was a report about Snowball, the puppy some poor kid was forced to leave on the street as he boarded a bus to Houston.
A Freeper emailed Noah's Wish and they said when they got to the CC, they would look for Snowball.
Tonight Carl Quintanilla of NBC found a traumatized dog by the side of the highway and he tried to give it water, but, the dog was too frightened, he snapped and barked at Carl.
We can only hope that Noah's Wish or some others, will find and help that pooch.
After I gave to the Salvation Army and my church's relief effort, I gave to Noah's Wish, IFAW and the Humane Society.
It's the only way I can sleep at night.

I just learned about Noah's Wish from googling after seeing dogs sitting on roofs in the flooding. Sure seems to be a very effective and terrific group. I admire them greatly for what they are doing in Slidell.

It's nice to read on their website, too, about what they are accomplishing.

I hope the scared dog is able to be rescued soon.

I remember reading that too. I hope they are successful. Snowball and that little guy need each other, imo.

That made me mad about that little boy - as if he had not lost enough and had enough trauma, the rescuer gave him the most cruel blow of all.

I know I am silly but I was hoping one of the military would find that little dog and get him to the boy or even that the President had heard and ordered that dog be found. I know - I'm ridiculous. But, I would be one that would stay with the animals, which is why I now do not get to travel that much.
