In Houston, Texas, 2 stray dogs on a highway confused motorists. It took law enforcement officers 45 minutes to retrieve them. Patience is a virtue !
2 4-legged friends were filmed by surveillance cameras on a highway near North Main, in the United States, reports the editorial team of abc 13. The Husky and the Bichon Maltese were walking dangerously one by one side to side in the expressway, disrupting traffic on the morning of Saturday April 30, 2022.
When the police discovered the situation, they rushed to the scene to get the dogs to safety. However, the latter gave them a hard time…
The importance of identification
Once there, the officers managed to keep the vagabond duo in the central corridor, behind the guardrail. It took 45 minutes for the responders to recover the 2 animals. After this “chase” with the police, the Husky and the Bichon Maltese finally decided to cooperate and agreed to climb into the vehicle. Exhausted, they were taken to a local shelter.
«They’re probably someone’s pets,» said one volunteer. Did they run away or were they victims of abandonment? The second hypothesis is favored by the volunteers. However, without a microchip, it is difficult to identify their owner.
Still according to our colleagues from across the Atlantic, the survivors, well maintained and educated, are already pre-adopted. In short, if their family does not claim them in the next few days, they will be sent to their new home.
This rescue operation sounds like a wake-up call for dog and cat owners. The identification of his little protege makes it possible to manage this kind of situation, and to quickly reunite the members of the family who have been separated for some time.
