An old stray dog was wounded in the Mumbai attacks and rescued. Sadly, he is the lucky one in a city filled with starving strays. Sheru was a stray dog hit by an errant bullet when two gunmen opened fire in a crowded railway station during the first night of the assault.

Dharamsala Animal Rescue helps the thousands of homeless street dogs that roam the streets of Dharamsala. These stray dogs are also without vaccinations, making them easy targets for contracting rabies. Dharamsala Animal Rescue is the only animal shelter in the province, giving lifesaving vaccinations to animals for as little as $1.

It was Los Angeles, after all, where mileage has no bearing on time, but where time was precious for my little rescue on this crystal morning. I’d been volunteering at rescues through my young adulthood, and I was training as a cat socializer, teaching terrified felines — the unlucky victims of cruel people — to trust humans again.

No dog is happier to be rescued. My human kept me in an enclosed porch because, let’s face it, I was crawling with fleas and pretty filthy. We dogs are wired by nature to be humans’ companions. After all, dogs have the longest history of co-habitation with humans of any animal. Yup, I was rescued in Africa.

Some time ago a neighborhood stray cat came to the yard to have her kittens. We tried to find a rescue group to take the little family so they could hopefully find a loving home. Sadly, shelters and rescues are full of cats and are already full. Sadly, shelters and rescues are full of cats and are already full.

Animals in the tri-state area are euthanized daily, rescue groups are unable to save as many lives as they wish, and animals spend years in boarding kennels while awaiting adopters to fall in love with them. But perhaps their human passed away, or maybe they fell on hard times and just couldn’t afford pet care any longer.
