Foothills Animal Shelter is taking in 12 dogs after an Oklahoma rescue was damaged by one of several deadly tornadoes that plowed through the state.
Three people were killed, and dozens of homes were either damaged or destroyed in the spring storm. The Oklahoma governor declared a state of emergency in five counties, including Pottawattamie County, where the dogs are coming from.
Foothills said it is accepting 12 dogs so SPAR can focus on lost pet reunification in the heavily-impacted areas of Shawnee and Cole, Oklahoma. Foothills is also sending pet care supplies to Oklahoma, and is asking the community for donations. Much-needed items include blankets, towels, cleaning supplies and water.
The community can drop off donations at Foothills Animal Shelter any day between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. You can also donate to SPAR or Foothills Animal Shelter through this link.
