Big-hearted New Yorkers opened their hearts and their homes to 50 rescue dogs of all ages who arrived from Kentucky on Saturday afternoon. In Hell’s Kitchen, the Muddy Paws Rescue rescued the dogs from the Bowling Green-Warren County Humane Society after severe flooding caused the shelter to become overcrowded.
Volunteers came out and collected the dogs where they will be fostering them for several weeks until they are ready to be adopted.

And not only did New Yorkers step up to help, rescuers from other states answered the call. In Union Grove, Wisconsin, Rescue Outreach, who have in the past partnered with Kentucky River Regional Animal Shelter, reached out to the community for help with donations of money, pet supplies and clean water. The rescuers were able to fill up a 15-foot goose neck trailer full of supplies.
In addition, they joined other rescues from Wisconsin and Illinois and drove to Kentucky to transport another 60 animals to safety. After the pets have been given a health check, they will be available for adoption.
We will be updating.
