Emergency Animal Rescue

It didn't take long for the public to start utilizing the Emergency
Animal Rescue. In early 1994, we were summond to Los Angeles to
assist in animal rescues during the Northridge earthquake, Then again
in October of 1996, we flew to Texas to rescue animals in the floods
in Conroe and Liberty. And again in our own hometown, the Harmony
Grove fire, the Viejas fire, the Pines fire and most recently, the
Cedar fire. The Emergency Animal Rescue came through with the help
of friends and neighbors, rescuing hundreds of animals, holding them
in our receiving areas, and then returning every single one of them
back to their rightful owners. We also just returned a Swift Water
rescue team from New Orleans after an 11-day mission in the
devastation of Hurricane Katrina where we rescued over 400 animals
from the floodwaters.

But we do more than just the high profile rescues. The Emergency
Animal Rescue has done thousands of rescues that go completly
unnoticed by anyone, save for the animal and the owner. Helping
those who can't help themselves.

Because what we do is inherently dangerous, members of the
Emergency Animal Rescue train on a continual basis to stay abreast
of the latest rescue techniques. We also cross-train with other
agencies so we can become familiar with their operating protocols,
and they with ours, which becomes ever so important in natural
disasters.

We leave nothing to chance and no member goes out on a rescue alone
or without first having the proper training and confidence to handle
the situation. Through its compliment of volunteers, members of the
Emergency Animal Rescue stand ready to safely return our precious
animals back to where they belong 24 hours a day 7 days a week.
