Anyone rescued dogs from abroad?

Candiflare

Anyone have any dog rescue stories where they've rescued a dying or ill dog from another country and brought it back with you? I'm collecting together some information and stories on it. Perhaps you could email me if you have any stories?

Radar

My little Radar, who is the fastest little dog I've ever met, played all day this week with a little black and white dog who was the first dog I met that could keep up with him. She was rescued from the streets of Brazil and flown back to the States by her owners. She said they visit Brazil a lot, and on one of those visits, that little dog, mostly starved, attached itself to her. By the next day she was on the phone finding out what she needed to do to get her back to the states.

And thank goodness they did. She absolutely adorable and Radar can't wait to play with her again at the doggie park, his little Brazilian Beauty.

I did not personally get my dog from another country but got him from a rescue who goes to Mexico and takes in the strays off the streets, vaccinates them, deworms them, neuter/spays them, makes sure they are healthy, then bring them back into Arizona where they adopt them out.

Peyton is the pride and joy we rescued from this rescue group He was one of 10 puppies! Mom was a stray.

Check out this link: Romania Animal Rescue, Inc.

The founder, Nancy, imports street dogs from Romania and re-homes them in other parts of Europe and the USA. If you e-mail her (contact info is on the website), I'm sure she has some stories for you. She currently owns a handicapped dog she rescued from Romania.

My dog was rescued in Slovenia and I brought him here. He still has a slovenian passport, which is fine since both countries are in the EC
