Animal rescue group’s efforts save doggy duo

Lynne Bedbrook’s beloved dogs Fielding and Stella are safe and sound and back at home thanks to the quick reaction of Wakefield’s newest animal search and rescue group.

Bedbrook had been walking her dogs near Chemin de la Riviere near Wakefield on Jan. 14, when she decided to let the pair off-leash momentarily.

“I was walking them on these long leashes and they were being so good,” Bedbrook recalled, explaining that the dogs do well with recall and had been walking side by side with her the entire time. “I thought I’d let them off since we were in familiar territory, but the next time I turned around they were gone.”
