PARSIPPANY — Last week Parsippany Focus wrote a story titled “Urgent Help: These dogs are scheduled to die on Wednesday” asking our readers to offer to foster a dog in their home so Eleventh Hour Rescue (EHR) could save the life of dogs in a shelter that were scheduled to die.

I also reached out and applied to be a foster parent to help save the animals.

Tom, Betty Tyler and Brielle Wyka, Parsippany, reached out and on Saturday, October 31 they went to Eleventh Hour Rescue and fostered a dog.  The dog Levi, wasn’t from last week’s transport, he has been around for a while so they helped them make some space for the arriving dogs. Levi is a nice big Great Pyrenees / Lab.

“Such a gentle mellow dog and really amazing on a leash! It was nice that so many dogs were helped. I hope that we can find “forever homes” for all of them,” said Tom.

Eleventh Hour Rescue is a volunteer based, non-profit, 501c3 organization that literally saves dogs and cats from death row.

They rely on the generosity of our volunteers to provide loving foster homes for dogs and cats pulled from death row in high-kill shelters.  They invite you to explore their website and humbly offer the chance to let one of the exceptional animals touch your heart the same way they each touch ours. Without you, they couldn’t do what they do, and that is to simply give them a chance. Without you, the animals don’t stand a chance.

Editors Note (correction): These dogs were not located at Parsippany Animal Shelter.
