A Malinois was just pulled out of an animal shelter in Tulare County (Northern CA.)
She was there for 9 days while Malinois Rescue tried to arrange a foster family for her. Once one was found (meanwhile she hadn't been adopted and the law in CA is a stray only needs to be held for 5 days then can be euthanized) she was bailed out and a volunteer drove her to Davis, then from there she went on another trip to her new foster home.
One volunteer to bail her out, another to drive one leg of the journey, and then the big volunteer to foster her. Lots of volunteers make dog rescue work. Another volunteer person is the coordinator of all this and was altered when the dog was noticed in the shelter and begged people to go evaluate the dog, then drive her to the foster home and do the actual fostering. Money from the Rescue Calendar (post below) goes to getting her out of the shelter and vet bills. Most times the transporter donates the gas to drive the dog to the foster home (does not ask for reimbursement) and the foster home pays for all the dog's food and other equipment like grooming or flea treatment. Know that if you buy a Rescue Calendar (or just send a donation) your $ is going directly to help the dogs.
Anyway, here is a picture of the girl the foster home named Reeses (because she is sweet.) Look like anyone we know? Sound like anyone else we know??
