]]>Per Fox News report, Vittert went out with the local volunteer fire department to survey the wreckage caused by floodwaters, which are isolating Chinquapin from the state, and to look for residents who might need help.
Vittert and volunteer fireman Josh Bergman spotted two dogs stranded on a porch surrounded by water. The reporter believes these animals were left for dead when Hurricane Florence blew in, but luckily, the dogs managed to swim to the safety of the porch.
The dogs, now called Chinquapin and Florence, were brought into the boat and driven to dry land.
“Left for dead during rising floodwaters of #HurricaneFlorence we rescued these guys on @foxnews” Vittert tweeted.

Lucky Dog Animal Rescue has volunteered to care for the dogs and make sure they find loving families. According to the animal shelter, both pups were taken to an animal hospital in North Carolina. Once cleared for travel, the rescue will drive them north and work on finding them forever homes.

]]>Alsup, a volunteer of EARS Emergency Animal Rescue and Shelter, bought an old school bus particularly for evacuation purposes and he used this in 2017 to evacuate pets from Texas before Hurricane Harvey.
Now, he headed toward the path of Hurricane Florence to save the animals who were left behind. Before the storm’s arrival, Alsup dropped by several South Carolina shelters and loaded the bus with furry passengers.
“I’m like, look, these are lives too,” Alsup told The Washington Post. “Animals — especially shelter pets — they always have to take the back seat of the bus. But I’ll give them their own bus. If I have to I’ll pay for all the fuel, or even a boat, to get these dogs out of there.”
He collected 53 dogs and 11 cats and delivered them to a rescue facility in Foley, Alabama , where they’ll be then transferred to other animal shelters across the country and hopefully get adopted into forever homes.
