A man and his dog who were nearly killed when their home exploded in Baltimore have finally been reunited after he spent four months in a coma.
Most of the dogs and cats came from the Humane Society of North Texas after several of their shelters either lost power or had their pipes freeze and explode during the storm.
Since 2016, St. Hubert s WayStation transport program has moved over 20,000 animals from areas of need to places of opportunity through a network of more than 80 sheltering organizations. In the animal welfare community, when disaster strikes, we re all in it together, St. Hubert s WayStation Director Colleen Harrington said. Humane Society of North Texas is a valued partner of ours, and this has been an extremely difficult time for them. Staff have been camping out at the shelter, ensuring the safety and well-being of their animals.
Animals were transferred from Athens Animal Rescue Shelter located in Athens, Humane Society of Cedar Creek Lake in Kemp, and Humane Society of North Texas in Fort Worth. This is a remarkable collaborative effort, demonstrating the deep commitment and compassion of the entire animal welfare community to meet the needs of these vulnerable animals, President & CEO of the ASPCA Matt Bershadker said.
Three ASPCA vehicles got the animals to the airport and the animals were then transported to Brandywine Valley SPCA in New Castle, Delaware, and St. Hubert s Animal Welfare Center, in Madison, New Jersey. The flights today will free up nearly 100 kennels so we can reopen our shelter on Sunday to the public for intake and adoptions, Humane Society of North Texas Director of Communications Cassie Davidson said.
