#307 MARY (Great Pyrenees) Waco, TX - Hartland, WI
MARY #307 a 3 yr female 65# Great Pyrenees apparently has had a hard life up to now. Rescued by the Waco Humane Society after having been found tied up and left without food for about a month, she should have weighed about 140# (the vet’s health certificate from the day of transport indicated only 57#).
On Thursday night during a Team Leader meeting, it was discovered Team Leaders Kris & Brandy P were to deliver their load in Garland, TX, the next morning and were scheduled to reload around noon going up to the MN/WI border. The Humane Society didn’t open until 10 a.m. and Mary didn’t have her health certificate.
That Friday morning was hectic as Sue W made calls to the receiver for help and calls to the HS before opening time. Everyone scrambled to get Mary’s documents and a ride up to Kris and Brandy before they reloaded. This was a ride Mary needed to get to her new rescue that could help her get back up to good health again.
Sue W drove down from Joshua to Hillsboro to meet with the veterinarian, Dr. Brunson, herself who had driven Mary up from Waco. Then Sue drove all the way up to Garland to meet the drivers at their shipper. Providence was with Mary as the reload for Kris & Brandy and their little Poodle, , had been delayed.
Kris reported Mary would look at him with her big brown eyes with such desperation she touched his heart. Mary met her new rescue “Mom” Lori in Tomah, WI, and they proceeded on to Hartland, WI.
Also, the Waco Humane Society was a delight to work with. Again proving there are some who do care for the welfare of the pets and are willing to do what it takes to help them get on to better homes.
