Hope For Paws got a call about two stray dogs who were wandering the streets together. People had tried to catch them multiple times, but they were evading rescuers for weeks.
The two little friends took refuge in a schoolyard, so Hope For Paws rescuers knew the best way to catch them would be to secure the area with fences so they wouldn’t be able to escape this time.
One of the rescuers, Loreta, was able to catch one of the dogs, Yogi, in netting. Of course, he was terrified and tried to escape the netting, so his little doggy friend, Boo-Boo, ran right up to him to make sure he was ok. Boo-Boo was concerned for Yogi and began barking at rescuers, but made sure not to get too close to them.
Loreta quickly slipped the leash around Yogi’s neck and put him in a crate so they could focus on rescuing Boo-Boo next. Boo-Boo was still very scared, but Loreta knew how important it was to get ahold of him as soon as possible. She fell and scraped her knee while putting the net around him, but she trapped him successfully.
She put Boo-Boo in the crate with Yogi, and the two of them calmed down once they were reunited. They were then brought to the hospital where they were examined and given a much-needed bath. Both of them had fleas and felt so much better once they were all removed.
They were slowly but surely trusting humans again and realized that they were finally safe and no longer had to worry about fending for themselves on the street. From there, the two of them went to a foster home together with Pal rescue.
Rescuers hoped that these two best friends would be adopted together in the same home so that they’d always have each other, and their wishes came true! Their new Dads, Neville and Kenny, adore the two of them and wanted to keep them together.
Yogi and Boo-Boo never have to worry about being separated, and they have such an amazing, loving forever home! They now enjoy the comfort of a real bed instead of hard pavement. They get showered with all the love and care in the world!
