Being part of a community equates to strength in times of crisis.\u00a0 The Status Puerto Rico<\/a> website claims 14% of the island has electricity and 53% cell service.\u00a0 College of Education instructor, Dr. Emily Hoeh,\u00a0 witnessed\u00a0 the devastation in Puerto Rico on a recent mission.\u00a0 The island, hard hit\u00a0 by the Hurricane Maria \u2013 still without power, lacking food and supplies.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0Many left before and after the hurricane, leaving behind pets.<\/p>\n

Suncoast Animal League<\/a> flew in the first time with vaccines and food to help, but were shocked by conditions and promised to return.\u00a0 Word got out and two planes sponsored by Helen Rich from On the Wings of Angels Rescue<\/a> and Suncoast Animal League were partnered\u00a0 to go back.\u00a0 The planes flew Suncoast volunteers with food and supplies donated from the generous community to take back to Puerto Rico and get to those in need.\u00a0 Their plan — fill the plane with as many dogs and cats as they could.<\/p>\n

Dr. Emily Hoeh, Suncoast Animal volunteer, helped bring back 85 dogs and 26 cats on the return trip.\u00a0 Suncoast Animal League <\/a>had to find temporary housing for 111 animals that needed medical attention, baths and vetting.\u00a0 Again, community stepped up.\u00a0 Creative Sign Designs<\/a> loaned out a warehouse for a month to use as housing.<\/p>\n

Thank you to On the Wings of Angels Rescue for sponsoring the cost of the planes, Creative Design for donating temporary housing and for Suncoast Animal League for rescuing 111 animals.<\/a>\u00a0 Thanks to all the vets, caring volunteers, groomers\/bathers who helped with this cause.<\/p>\n

Adopt or Foster?<\/h5>\n

Around 35 of the Puerto Rican dogs and cats will be available for adoption at the 10th Annual Dogtoberfest on November 11th in Highlander Park in Dunedin<\/a>.\u00a0 Possibly more if spayed\/neutered in time.\u00a0 Over 50 rescue groups will be in attendance.<\/p>\n
