The news said no pets were allowed to go with rescued owners. I am sure that man was also heartbroken to leave his dog behind. The whole mess is heartbreaking.
I didn't hear the newscast about the 9 minis, one of my riding students told me about it. That is sad, too. I wish folks had heeded the warnings and gotten out with pets and livestock before the hurricane hit. I guess its human nature to think things "aren't going to be that bad." Especially if you've never been through such a disaster before.
I live near the Outer Banks of NC and there are always those who "ride out the storm" becasue they don't want to leave their homes. I don't know what I'd do in a simular case, so I don't dare judge.
