Far too often tragedy strikes and leaves little choices for animals. The mission of the
Animal Rescue is to provide the holding of an animal on the scene along with care,
treatment, and transportation to the nearest hospital or kennel releasing some of the
burden off the owner/victim.
Though the truck is limited with equipment we can handle any situation. We have
firefighters working with the rescue team to enter and pull out any animals in danger or
causing danger to any personnel on scene. Already we have responded to many scenes
from dogs hit by cars to cats rescued out of a building believed to be collapsing. Rescue
will also respond to a scene without confirmation of animals in danger and in which case
don't hesitate to ask for help.
In any emergency we can be reached by police radio as 4179-1 or our office can be
called at (610)522-1113

Our ambulance was called for a injured red tailed

One Friday, September 27Just before rush-hour we had one of the worst calls we've ever had it was from a
veterinarian that said they started an operation that they could not complete without advanced surgery, they needed the
dog transported from an animal hospital in Delaware County to an animal surgical ward in Philadelphia. They needed
our animals because it had oxygen the animal had a hole in his heart it was a three-month-old puppy. Our dispatcher
went above and beyond to see what he could do to get a team in. 15 minutes later he accrued three Volunteers and a
truck ready but that's not the end of the story, We had no veterinarian technician, or veterinarian to go with us. We did
have a certified EMT that would have to do a very experienced driver and a highway personnel from the borough,
these three dedicated volunteers set off on his almost hopeless journey. They arrived at the hospital not knowing what
they would find, and it was worse than I thought the dog had 20 minutes to get there which was normally a 45 minute
drive without rush-hour traffic. They loaded the puppy And took a deep breath set the GPS and took off I'm sure they
made some unhappy motorist along the way but the only thing they could think of was saving his puppies life. The
animal hospital met them at the door yes just in time,, and am happy to report the next day the animal hospital called
the puppy went through the third surgery and is doing fine and looks like you make a full recovery.
So the next time you see that strange truck driving down the street behind you says animal ambulance please
give it away it is someone's loved one in that van.
