a terminally ill man from
southwest iowa hopes
you can help make his final wish
come true. (sheila)
he reached out to the siouxland
finding homes for his 18 dogs. twelve of the dogs are now at
the shelter.
the humane society says the man
took very good
care of and loved all his dogs.
"these were dogs that he rescued. these were stray dogs,
abandoned
dogs, or dogs that nobody
wanted,"said kelly erie, assistant
shelter manager.
the human society will return to
shenandoah in
a couple months to pick up the
remaining six dogs before the
owner goes into hospice care.
