Humane Educational Society Animal Protection Service Officers spent most of the night Thursday, March 26 rescuing 26 small breed dogs that had been living in a van with their owner. 

"Thanks to generous animal lovers like you who donated to our Special Needs Fund, all 26 dogs have been spayed and neutered," officials said. "Each dog has been vaccinated, groomed and microchipped.

"Seven of the dogs had cherry eye and have received surgery to end the discomfort of the condition.
Three more of our new furry friends had sever dental issues. Each of these dogs had a dental cleaning and rotten teeth removed.

"Almost all of the dogs have found their forever home or are recovering in a foster home. Thank you to everyone who made their happy ending possible."
