Rescue<br />

waggin’<br />

With help from the PetSmart Charities Rescue Waggin’,<br />

the DRHS is rescuing animals from southern<br />

overcrowded shelters. As of March 15th, the DRHS<br />

has recieved 153 dogs and puppies, and are expecting<br />

two more transports by the end of the month!<br />

"In southern states where the temperature is<br />

very warm, there is an even higher population of<br />

homeless dogs, and those dogs don't have much<br />

of a chance. When they can't get adopted in a<br />

shelter, they are often euthanized,"<br />

said Maria Benham, president and CEO of the<br />

Dubuque Regional Humane Society.<br />

The DRHS is set to take in and care for over<br />

500 animals from the rescue program and on average<br />

cares for over 2500 animals on an annual basis.<br />

Rescue<br />
