Shelter Rescues 80 Dogs from Peurto Rico’s Earth Quakes


Shelter Rescues 80 Dogs from Peurto Rico's Earth Quakes |

Porto Rico was recently hit by a series of devastating earthquakes that have left parts of the country without water and electricity, and have killed at least one man.

Now it looks like it has also left more than 80 dogs without their homes, as they had to be flown to Palm Beach County last Saturday to give them a new temporary home.

They had no water, no electricity, and it’s been mayhem since they had the earthquakes

Suzi Goldsmith, the founder and director of Tri-County Animal Rescue.

These dogs were left without electricity, food, or even water. Two of the dogs turned out to be pregnant.

The dogs were living in deplorable conditions and were unlikely to survive without help.

The shelter wasn’t even sure the plan would be able to take off Peurto Rico with the dogs, but after some struggling, it did and it flew all the dogs safely home.

Veterinarians are now doing their checks on the dogs to make sure they’re healthy before they put up the dogs for adoption. The dogs will also be spayed and neutered and will receive vaccinations before they are up for adoption.

The shelter director says they are doing everything they can to have the dogs ready for adoption as soon as next week.

Any kind of food anybody can bring us today, sheets, towels, pillow cases.
