Rocket, an energetic mutt once slated for euthanasia, has spent the past few days aiding search-and-rescue efforts in Texas after Hurricane Harvey devastated the Gulf Coast. He’s not alone.
The black-and-white mutt with freckles on his snout is one of three dogs saved from the needle who are now helping humans still suffering from the historic storm.
They’re working alongside 11 other rescued dogs —those pups’ fates weren’t as dire — trained by the Search Dog Foundation. The nonprofit organization seeks out dogs on kill lists for unwanted behaviors.
