Jethro Running Loose – A Village Comes Together

On July 6th my friend found this boy running loose. She held onto him for a week but couldn’t keep him. He was taken to the shelter and no one claimed him. His stray hold was up and he was testing positive for a tick born disease. I reached out to the shelter to offer 4 Paws 1 heart assistance with deeper testing to determine if the tick born disease was real or just showing positive because of exposure. Turns out Jethro was only exposed and didn’t require treatment for Lyme disease. Hound dogs are difficult to place. Plus he was an adult with no training and high prey drive. I reached out to a friend Paula Guilds who I knew had owned hounds in past. Her neighbor Lauri was willing to foster Jethro if a rescue could pull him. Then, I reached out to Jenn Day from Misfit Angels Rescue and she came through once again! Jethro was released into his new foster home on August 8th. This is an example of what can go into saving each animal. Multiple people with a caring heart starting with Stefanie Maihofer , then Chief Jeff Randazzo at Macomb County Animal Control , 4 Paws 1 Heart , Paula, Lori, Jenn, and her rescue. THANK YOU EVERYONE!!! It’s taken me time to post his story. I will share his adoption link when I have it. This is what rescue is all about!!!! It is work but it’s worth it! Thank you Stefanie for your donation and here are a few pics of when he came home and now. Gina https://4paws1heart.org/donations/
