Hearing loud screams in the middle of the night isn’t pleasant, but for Kaitlyn from Adams County Pet Rescue in Othello, Washington, fear was not an option. She quickly jumped into action when she noticed the sounds were not human. However, she couldn’t ascertain their cause until she peeked under her car, discovering an extraordinary sight.
A Shocking Sight
At 11 P.M., after she had let her dogs out for the night, Kaitlyn heard heartbreaking sounds from beneath her car. When she finally investigated, she froze in surprise—there, in the shadows, lay a terrified dog with sparkling eyes, hiding from the unknown.
This fearful pup was challenging to reach, and Kaitlyn never imagined the rescue would turn into an adventure. As the dog darted from under the car, Kaitlyn pursued, needing to make split-second decisions to prevent it from disappearing into the night.
Fortunately, the pup didn’t venture far, making a few circles around Kaitlyn’s house, remaining close to this newfound “fenced refuge.” Despite her fear and trauma, the dog stayed put. Kaitlyn lost her sandals during the chase but continued running barefoot. She soon enlisted a small crew to help safely corner the puppy, leading to a joyful outcome when the rescue intervened. As shared by the rescue, “When Kaitlyn calls at 11 PM, I know something exciting is happening.”
Eventually, the dog was safely transported to the facility for care.
Primavera Has A Whole New Life Now
Despite her prior trauma, the dog, now named Primavera, quickly emerged from her shell. Thanks to the ACPR’s dedicated efforts, she soon found a temporary foster home, where she blossomed into a vibrant new dog. With her foster mom, Tammy, Primavera is discovering what life is all about, transforming from a frightened pup to a friendly social butterfly who adores meeting new people. And she especially loves rides in a puppy buggy!
Tammy has showered Primavera with love, and the enthusiastic pup reciprocates wholeheartedly. She actively enjoys chasing balls and parading her toys, but her favorite pastime is being around people. As the ACPR team cheerfully reported,
“She loves chasing balls, chew toys, carrying her stuffies around and hanging out in the backyard. She’s very social now and wants to be where the people are,”
Though she’s still learning, Primavera is well on her way to becoming an exceptional companion. When the time comes, she will happily join a forever family, ready for new adventures and friendships. After everything she’s endured, she truly deserves it!
