NH Volunteers Work To Help Reunite Lost Dogs With Owners

BOSTON (CBS) - Tonight, we'd like to take a minute to recognize Granite State Dog Recovery.

They are an all volunteer group that works with shelters, rescue groups and animal control agencies, veterinarians and pet lovers to help reunite lost dogs with their owners.

Granite State Dog Recovery helps educate owners on productive methods to use in bringing their dogs home and they also assist in team search efforts when possible.

Granite State Dog Recovery also uses social networking and Internet resources to help reunite pets with their families by publishing Lost Dog Alerts through the vast Face Book social networking website.

They never reject a plea for help.

Their mission statement reads:

We know how desperate it feels to lose a dog. We know the heartache, the worry, the sense of helplessness and we know the "if only" thoughts that go through the mind. We know that a dog can quickly become lost , and they can become so frightened they often have difficulty coming to their owners even when the meeting is face to face and we know that this can happen to any dog. This is one of the many reasons that Granite State Dog Recovery was created.
