Every hurricane season, we talk about THE BIG ONE that might come for Houston, and we always hope you're prepared. We hope you've prepared your animal as well (but that's the subject of another blog post). If something did go wrong, and you were evacuated and left your animal behind (we hope you wouldn't!) who would be there to rescue your pet? Enter EARS, the Emergency Animal Rescue Service. It's a group of volunteers who mobilize to search for stray animals who've been left behind in disasters: fires, floods, hurricanes, you name it. EARS is looking for a few good people with big hearts to attend a volunteer workshop the weekend of October 15th and 16th at the Holiday Inn Northeast in San Antonio. Betsy Fleming, the EARS Texas state coordinator, says it should be a great weekend with the class for new volunteers on Saturday and discount pet chipping on Sunday. If you need more information, you can check out the event's website here. EARS' slogan is "No Animal Left Behind." You could be the good samaritan who reunites a pet with his loved one! |
