On the same topic - disasters and pets- does anyone know if Terri Crisp still has her disaster rescue (it is National - or was)- "called EARS. United Animal Nations' Emergency Animal Rescue Service, a nationwide disaster program that save shousand of animals." Her book that I have is called Out of Harms Way. And there was a 2nd book too. The appendix gives great advice for preparing various animals for disasters (horses, birds, you name it) the book inspired me to want to join the team but you have to be able to go to a disaster right away (there is a weekend training involved - it's not like they throw you in). I love the book- who knew? I never thought about dogs left in floods and etc because the news never shows these things. She does (did?) remarkable work. So, back to question, does anyone know if the organization is still operating?
