Looking for a dog rescue group to rescue a dog......
 
Loading Image...
 
My coworker just came to me and asked me to help.
Her husband is a supervisor at a Rock Yard (think concrete) off Almeda Genoa and Mykawa.
 
A stray dog - of lab appearance - has shown up there the last week or two - and he wants to see her rescued.
I'm attaching a picture to this post. She looks to be in decent health, although skinny, and he says she has some scrapes and sores on one of her hindquarters (could be from laying on the rocks so much?). Purple ring around her neck looks to be where a collar was at one time?
 
Anyway, they live in North Houston, he's just at the plant down here temporarily. He called every animal rescue he knew where they live in North Houston, and they either never answered or wouldn't call back/help/refer him to local group. They have an elderly dog that the vet recommended against introducing a new dog to (neurological issues in their elder dog would cause high anxiety), or they'd take her themselves.
 
She's used to him now and will come to his truck, he's been feeding/watering her the last few days. But she won't get near enough to him to catch.
I have his contact information and a video of the dog if a local, reputable group/person can rescue her - he'd be glad to help and see she gets care.
 
Anyone?

Call a vet in the area and ask them for rescues in the area.

So she's afraid of people? Can you please post the video? I'm trying to share with some lab rescues. Thanks!

I was able to get some attention to her, and it looks promising that she can be caught, cared for, and rehomed.

I've gone out every evening and have sat on the ground and fed her, trying to gain her trust. She got about 2 feet from me last night but I didn't want to risk scaring her off by trying to get a lead on her. We'll be back out every day until we get her! I'll update when we do.

Well good news, we finally got her Friday night! She's around 2 and is very sweet.

Bad news, she's high heart worm positive, has hookworms, scabs from an embedded collar, not spayed, and super skinny. We're treating her and will start heartworm treatment in two months when she's healthier.

What a good job with the rescue. That took a lot of patience, but I am so glad you could help this dog.

@Kareng : I think you were right at the dog park the other day, she looks like she has some Pyr in her. Thank goodness you were able to get her!

@susieq : Yes she must! When all of her hair comes in she will be much fuller and I think she'll look more like one. She has double back dew claws which is a Pyranees trait too. Thank you for telling me about her plight...I'm glad I was able to save her too, she's very sweet and grateful. Hopefully Cami and I will see you at the dog park again!
PS....we named her Hope. 💜

She's probably a Pyrador, a Pyranees and lab mix though. ( I didn't know that existed!) 😀
