Three Puppies Rescued Because of Networking on Pawsitively Texas

Puppies rescued from pawsitively texas page postSeptember 12, 2011

Liza Hitt shared this story earlier on our WOOF! page … a post of three puppies out of time at a kill shelter on the Pawsitively Texas Facebook page led to the long distance rescue of these precious ones. Once they got to foster, they discovered they had parvo … but the rescue fought with them to beat it. Tonight, Liza shared this video of the three puppies playing. Puppies that beat the urgent kill list, made a long road trip to rescue, fought parvo … and now are simply enjoying life as puppies.

This story is even more powerful. It starts with someone, Emily Rose Godlevsky, a local volunteer that takes photos of pets at her animal shelter and posts online, in hopes the good photos will help a pet be adopted or rescued. It’s great to see professional photograhers volunteer their time to help the paws; this is Emily’s photo blog. Because of Emily’s volunteer efforts with her local shelter, these three young pups got their chance at life. They beat the overwhelming odds stacked against shelter animals – even puppies! And with the power of the Pawsitively Texas networking community, a rescue hundreds of miles away was able to save them. Godlevsky even made the long distance road trip to transport the pups to the Texas coast! Rescues, volunteers, and networkers are truly lifesavers! And as we often see, it really is the ‘village’ working together that is improving the save rate for Texas pets!

“I’m thankful my photography got these babies seen and that my family had the weekend free to take a roadtrip,” said Godlevsky.

What a great story! The pups have been named BoBo, Roberta, and Dakota. Happy new life little ones!

  1. I knew the moment I met these kiddos I needed to help get them out of there, and was shocked when I went in the next week and they were still at the shelter! I’m so happy that Liza (Leo’s Mom), and For the Love of Strays were able to take them in as we rushed to get it all settled down. The road trip was long but SO worth it, and being new to Texas (From Oregon) and never having been down that way, the drive from Denton to Corpus Christi was a wonderful experience for us.

    I feel so blessed that my photography is making a big impact in the local rescue scene, and I hope to be able to keep up the life saving… one camera click at a time. Nothing like something you love doing so much making a difference, and changing the world, one pup at a time!

    Thanks, Pawsitively Texas for being such a great outlet for networking the Texan critters in need. You do such awesome work in the state!
