We are all aware that our dogs defend us and protect us. Occasionally, though, our pets become the ones in need of rescue. As their closest friends, it is our obligation to help them in any way possible when this happens. They have been faithful to humans since they were domesticated and we should give back to them.
In 2018, Hurricane Florence caused an estimated $24.23 billion in damage along the east coast. People lost their lives and their houses, and even our pets were harmed by this violent storm.
A lucky dog from North Carolina received a fortunate break when People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, an animal rights organization, discovered her in her own home. The dog was seen pacing back and forth on the porch as PETA employees approached.
It was unclear where this dog’s owners were, but what mattered now was that she was rescued. She was stranded on the porch for a long time with no one to feed her or keep her warm. That is when the PETA staff members who were in the area decided to take her with them.
The video became viral not only because the dog was rescued, but also because of the dog’s reaction. The cheerful and obviously relieved yellow Labrador welcomed her savior with enthusiasm. Her tail was wagging wildly, as though she were greeting her owner, who had just returned home.
The dog was overjoyed that someone had come to retrieve her. She had a pleasant smile on her face perhaps it was because she realized she no longer had to suffer anymore.
During Hurricane Florence, many canines were abandoned by their families, who were either in a panic or unable to transport them. Volunteers and animal welfare organizations walked through the filthy floodwater to assist these unfortunate animals.
