Saving Dakota

"Littergirl" saves a Georgia Peach. This little Chow mix was tied to a heavy object in the back yard and the owners drove off and left her there to die. She was spotted by Lisa. Shortly after she set into action a plan to rescue Dakota.	Volunteers from Kat 5 Animal Rescue helped in the capture of this allusive little girl. Without them we are not sure she would have been caught at all!	Dakota after having the mats of neglect shaved off.

	Look into those eyes how could anyone leave her, let alone tie her out to die in the elements by herself!

Sean offers to help in the first leg of the puppy express. Lisa and Sean are both members of chowchow.org.	We know Lisa is in the background probably taking this picture with tears in her eyes. It is a mixed blessing knowing Dakota is going to a rescue soon to find her forever home, and yet losing her to someone else. This is a hazard of being a foster mom.	Amanda and Renae drop off Dakota in Swanton OH

	All of this happened because of the caring of one person, Lisa. Thank you everyone from chowchow.org for helping this girl find a forever home! With out Lisa, Kat 5 Rescue and everyone from the Puppy Express the ending would have been tragic.

Ai Shu and Dakota meet. We brought Ai Shu along to help calm Dakota down for the last leg of her journey. Little did we know she would be making a return trip to this spot in a month. Amanda and her family after having this loving girl over night have decided to adopt her. Dakota now has a forever home.	A - Sean from Marietta GA. to Wytheville West VA. B - Jenn from Paws BBS from Wytheville West VA to Beckley West VA. C - Amanda from Beckley West VA. to Marietta OH. Overnight. D - Amanda from Marietta OH to Kent OH. E - Amanda and Renae from Kent OH to Swanton OH. F - Larry and Terrina Harris from Swanton OH to TLC Rescue in Holland MI..	Dakota was terrified of leaving Renae and Amanda It took a lot of love and tenderness to get her in the truck, for the last leg to Michigan. Dakota is on her third week of heartworm treatment. At the 30 day mark after all the worms are dead this loving Chow will make her last rescue trip. We know Amanda and family anxiously await her return. We can tell you for sure we will miss this little bundle of happiness!
