CHP Officer Rescues Dog

Camp Fire, California

A California Highway Patrol officer found this dog that survived the recent Camp Fire which has already destroyed more than 10,000 homes in Northern California. Thanks to these fast acting CHP officers, he was taken to a veterinary clinic in Chico, California for emergency treatment.

Rescue Me made a grant to the clinic where this dog was taken, and is providing thousands of dollars in funding for emergency veterinary care and other assistance for other animals affected by the Camp Fire and other wildfires in California.

Rescue Me is also shipping thousands of pounds of pet food and supplies to those in need in areas of California affected by wildfires.
