@matthewhaag I would never, under any circumstances evacuate my family & not take my dog. I'm shocked that anybody would. Or COULD.

I saw 2 guys on the news yesterday trying to get back to their apt to get their dog. I couldn't understand why they ever left the dog!
-
They could have been coming back from work or another location where they were helping others?
-
True...it was hard to tell, but it sounded like they got out and never thought the first floor would flood and found out it was.

If I couldn't take my dog I wouldn't leave.

I can imagine many families stayed because of their pets.

I've been under mandatory evacuation orders twice--didn't leave because I couldn't take my cats.

Who's a good human? It's you! Pets are family. Don't leave them behind.

And also, who would leave a dog chained when the water is rising?!? At least give the poor animal a chance.

Thankfully, they've warned doing this will result in law enforcement response, ranging from fines to imprisonment.

The animal shelters need our donations: I gave to the San Antonio Humane Society on Saturday; they're taking displaced Houston pets

I was 7mos pregnant in Sandy. No heat and wouldn't leave my house unless my dogs came. I won. The dogs left with us.

If my pets couldn't go, I wouldn't go.

After winter outage, once had to drive far to motel that'd house us & 2 senior cats - so much worse to be trapped w/ pets during flood!

I can't imagine the fear of both the people & their furry kids. I've snuck mine in when moving cross country & stuck in an Ohio blizzard!
