Scout's Honor Rescue in Dire Need of Donations and Foster Homes

15 Dogs Rescued from BARC Looking for Forever Homes

Bobbi Leder
This past weekend, the Houston based animal rescue organization, Scout's Honor, made the decision to help dogs at the Bureau of Animal Regulation and Care (BARC) who were most at risk of being put down.

So on Sunday, March 7, 2010, four trucks drove to BARC and loaded 15 dogs. One dog (Cash pictured above) had to go to the emergency animal hospital due to a hole in his back, another dog was placed in a home straight away, and a third dog went to a foster home; the remainder of dogs are staying with kennels and veterinarians who kindly opened their doors. Scout's Honor Rescue is now in dire need of donations as well as people to foster the dogs.

If you are interested in fostering any of the dogs who have been kenneled for many months, contact Leslie at lesliehillendahl@yahoo.com or info@scoutshonor.org. Click here to view photos of the dogs.
