A neighbor of a NAFA volunteer saw this little guy running down a community road where it had almost been ran over by an oncoming vehicle. She contacted the NAFA volunteer, who explained that she must call the Director before taking the animal but would help out with the dog until she was able to reach her. The dog was taken in on Saturday and the owner contacted NAFA to arrange for pick up of the dog on Thursday. NAFA’s Director contacted the communities Animal Control Officer to alert him that dog had been found running loose in his area. He was able to help reunite this happy fellow with his family. He was very excited to see Amber when she came to get him.

 While in foster care the foster home that was keeping him discovered that he is able to scale a 5 foot chain link fence plus is able to able to unlatch the chain link gate. Hopefully this family has learned more about their sweet fellow and will deter him from further adventures of his own making.

 If you have found an animal running loose in your community try local officials first as sometimes they are familiar with the animal. If you need assistance with the animal you may contact NAFA at nafahelp@gmail.com or nafaresce@yahoo.com . You can also leave a message on NAFA message only line at 870-932-1955.
