Transport Accident

[lizbud]

I read this article about a Border Collie rescue transport
from Indiana heading to Michigan rescue headquarters when
a terrible accident happened.
The 15 month old female was later found by a passerbye
shaking with cold in a ditch nearbye, but the 12 wk old
baby has not been located as yet. His picture is in the link
to greatlakesbcrescue site address at the end of link article.

Click on "Please pray for these puppies. " I do pray
that this little guy has been found & is safe and warm
somewhere right now. Indiana has had sub zero wheather
for the last week or so & I hate to think of him out there all
alone. Hope you get to your forever home little buddy.

delidog,

I did find this update when the female Kassie was found,
oh, and the baby BC male's name is Haskins.

Gosh, I hope & pray that Haskins has been found by someone.
Maybe they don't know about where he came from. Sweet
little guy.

I will keep them all in my thoughts. I have done transports, and I am glad (knock on wood) nothing like that has happened to any I have helped with.

[delidog]

well that lends a little more hope!!!!
Thank god for microchips!!!!!!!!
dear little Haskins!!!!!I pray that he is found SOON!!!!!!!!!!
it is too cold for a baby like that to be out there alone!!!!

Thank you for the update!!!!!!
We'll keep Praying...

[lizbud]

I was just thinking about the dear lady who was driving the
transport. Please say a prayer for her as well, I know she must
be frantic with worry & ill placed guilt over the accident. A good
hearted person like she must be, must feel so bad for these
rescue animals. I'll say special prayers for this lady also.

Lizbud,
You are sooo right....I didn't mean to exclude her...you are right ...she must be out of her mind searching for little Haskins....
a special prayer for her also....
I hope that cinder and smoke see this story...they seem to have a strong connection on the ole Prayer line!!!!

Prayers on the way.

I hope the little guy is found soon and I also hope that someone has picked him up and is caring for him. I will send a prayer out for him and the poor lady who was driving.

Haskins, the missing pup...



Here's a link to Great Lakes BC Rescue. They have a link just under their intro banner titled "Prayers for the Puppies needed...". The link goes to a page giving the first newspaper story when both pups were missing...

Cinder and Smoke,

Thanks for posting the picture of Haskins.

When you are able to actually see the face of this little guy,
it makes it a lot more "personal", at least to me it does. I keep
thinking that he already had a forever home waiting for him
when the accident happened. Maybe God had another home
in mind for Haskins. I hope & pray that someone in the traffic
tie up maybe found him later & scooped him up and took him
home with them. The alternative is too horrible to think about.
Best of Luck Haskins !!!

Oh poor Haskins!! I hope someone just took him home, at least out of the cold. I'm praying for him and for the woman who was driving right now.
Keep us updated.

Has there been any updates on Dear Haskins?????

[lizbud]

I've been checking everyday for an update to this story. So
far , nothing in the local paper about finding him. There was an
update on the BC Rescue website that I think was directed to
people in this area;

Update:

HELP! LOST DOG in Accident on I-70
Haskins is a Border Collie
Haskins was in an accident last Friday January 10 along I-70 east of Plainfield. He is a Great Lakes Border Collie Rescue dog that was on his way home to his new family. He is only 12-weeks-old and weighs about 12 pounds, with very fluffy fur that is black and white with tan eyebrows.

We have found our other lost puppy, Kassi at 6 Point Roads and I-70 this last Tuesday. He could be in that area as well.

Please help us find Haskins! If you see him - PLEASE - pick him up. (By the time you call us he could be gone from his location.) Then call 317-251-1998 or the Hendricks Animal Control (in Danville at 317-745-9250)

Look for him around warm places, around dumpsters or restaurants, any place where food may be available. Also - look around your neighborhood - he may seek out a warm place under a porch. He may also seek out a friendly canine companion. Are your dogs barking at anything unusual? It may be Haskins roaming your neighborhood.

Don't be mistaken - dogs CAN survive in this weather - they are smart! If you are helping to search - take FOOD with you! (Real people food like hotdogs or lunchmeat.) Thank you for all of your help - Haskins' new family are waiting for him!!!


I think they haven't given up on finding him & hopeing that
someone might still find him wandering around the area or has
already found him & taken him in as lost.

Oh Dear Little Haskins!!!
How I hope they FIND him Soon!!!!!!!!!
Dear Sweet Boy!!!
We are praying for you!!!!
