Why one Ontario animal rescue is being inundated with unwanted dogs

animal rescue agency is asking for help as adoption rates sit at an all-time low while more dogs are coming into their care.Precious Paws Rescue says that post-pandemic, and with the rising cost of living, they are seeing an increase in dogs being given up and a decrease in people looking to adopt a furry friend.The animal rescue agency is a charity that helps re-home dogs from shelters and owner surrenders and helps owners who can’t afford pet food or emergency surgeries.The rescue’s founder says 2023 has been the most challenging year for adoption applications in their 17 years of operation.“COVID brought a huge surge in people who wanted dogs because they were at home, and it was just more feasible for them. During COVID, we had all kinds of applications, and the dogs were placed in homes fairly quickly once they were ready for adoption,” Cassandra Hauck says.“This year, we’re finding even that healthy, happy, 12-week-old puppies are not getting applications very quickly.”She says they are seeing a lot of dogs purchased during the pandemic that were not properly trained are now being given up.Hauck says they’re seeing more dogs being surrendered, and need more people looking to adopt.She notes on average, they usually have between 10 to 20 dogs at a time in foster homes, but right now, they have 25.Some of their dogs have been with foster families for more than a year.“I think that people being back working outside of the home is making it more difficult to have time for pets in their home.

I-95 collapse: Detours, road closures creating influx of traffic in nearby neighborhoods

PHILADELPHIA - Commuters in Philadelphia are adapting to new road closures and detours in the wake of the I-95 collapse that officials say will take months to repair. Some of the re-routed traffic, however, is being funneled onto tight streets in North Philadelphia that aren't equipped to handle the influx of traffic. A viewer photo given to FOX 29 News shows the aftermath of a tractor trailer coming down the tight confines of Westmoreland Street and tearing down a cable line. The traffic chaos has caused neighbors in Bridesburg to take matters into their own hands by placing cones and caution tape on the roadway to help direct traffic. "The people on the block here are trying to help people go the right way, because if they go all the way down towards Aramingo they may have to turn around and go towards traffic," Scott Simon said. "In order to keep them from going down that way, we have the cones which is forcing them to go the right way." Some of the road closures, according to neighbors, have caused drivers to become lost in unfamiliar parts of town which has raised safety concerns for residents with children.
