Making a Statement
The story was quickly gaining attention of locals and news stations. The firefighters had a few people come out to interview the team, asking what happened and who was responsible. The squad took this time to educate people about animals, and to inform them they have all kinds of options if they ever find themselves in this situation. Instead of dumping animals and leaving them for dead, other people are more than happy to care for them instead.
Smart Choices
The team also encouraged people to do their research before deciding to add a pet to their family. Animals take a lot of time and work, and many people underestimate just how much work they will be! In many cases, people are too ashamed to take their animals to humane societies, so they dump them in rural locations. It’s a sad truth; people need to be much more informed before they take on a pet.
