Pilot Flies 750 Miles to Save a Dog That Was Given 24 Hours to Live




While dogs might be man’s best friend, this man is now definitely the best friend of Lisa the pup.

Lisa, also known as Adrienne, is a 2-year-old dog who was rescued by the Granville County Animal Shelter in Oxford, North Carolina when she was found on the streets with a severe bladder prolapse. Because the surgery for the prolapse was too serious, Lisa was sentenced to euthanization.

That is, until Animals R Family – an animal wellness center and charity in Englishtown, New Jersey, heard about her plight.


The charity volunteered the $1,500 necessary for the surgery, but they had no idea how they were going to get Lisa from North Carolina to the animal hospital before the deadline.

These are the stories of the unsung heros, the everyday folk who quietly go about their business being good, honest, caring, people. They don't do things to make the news, they do things just because it seems the right thing to do. These are the people who make America great and people that the idiot in the White House will never know or understand.
