Aww that almost brought me to tears. Hurray for that woman!! We need many more people like her. If i ever get rich I will have a 24 HOUR dog rescue line. More than once i have found dogs running around and called the SPCA who said they don't pick up strays after hours, and to either keep them overnight or TURN THEM LOOSE. I was soooooo angry! Once on my way home, I found THREE huskies loose. I grabbed what seemed to be the leader of the pack and the other two followed me home. I had a 13 year old dog at that time so we put the huskies in the backyard (they had no tags) My conscience wouldn't allow me to turn them loose to who knows what kind of a fate, so my mother allowed me to keep them overnight in the fenced yard. They destroyed her garden *lol* and in the AM i started to make some calls, I forget how, but i got the number of a vet clinic and they said to bring the dogs there, and they would put them in cages until the owners were found. My neighbour and I piled the three dirty dogs in his car and drove to the vet. The receptionist recognized the dogs! she said it wasn't the first time they'd run off LOL.
I have brought many, many stray dogs home, and when i was a kid i even tried to bring 'stray' cats home, much to my mother's horror! (they weren't strays just cats ppl let outside) LOLOLOL.
