[leftchick]

A dog stranded for days in high floodwaters in New Orleans found shelter in this AC unit cage. He was pulled to safety by an HSUS rescue team. (Tim Carman/The HSUS)

:cry: OMG that poor baby. Thank God they saved him...

1. Only managed to se about 5 minutes of TV last night, replay of KO

where some Guardsmen were patiently coaxing a dog stranded on a second floor stair landing to let them feed itsome MREs and water. Ended with then gently getting the dog in a big kennel box and taking it with them in a punt. Made my day.

4. Poor doggy :(

I'm trying to figure out how the hell he got in that cage . . . doesn't look like there's enough space anywhere for him to get in there.

At least they got him out and are getting him help.

6. I like to imagine all those rescued

will live long happy food filled lives! :)

5. Oh, my God. That is so awful for that poor baby. SO glad they saved him!

:cry: How terrible that he was in that situation, yet how clever he was to find a way to save himself from the flooded waters. Talk about resilience!
