Mutual Rescue™ – Tracy and Jack

Posted on April 6, 2017 | Leave a comment

I blogged about Mutual Rescue™ last year; it’s a a trademarked initiative of the Humane Society Silicon Valley. Aimed at changing the way people think of animal welfare and adoption, each year the Society asks for submissions from people to share their story about a special connection they have made with an animal.

The first story of 2017 has been released. Meet Tracy and Jack. Note that Jack is a tripod as well as having only one eye. It doesn’t stop him from living a full life.

Note: Tripods benefit from regular massage which helps to retain full range of motion in the remaining limbs. Stretching and relieving tension in hard-working muscles helps to keep these special needs dogs moving. I love working with tripods (I don’t live near Jack, so can’t work with him)!

Mutual Rescue™ is a trademarked initiative of the Humane Society Silicon Valley. Aimed at changing the way people think of animal welfare and adoption, each year the Society asks for submissions from people to share their story about a special connection they have made with an animal.

These stories of inspiration and transformation have come about because a person walked into an animal shelter and adopted a pet.

Four new videos will be released in early 2017 after over 400 stories were submitted for consideration.

Below is the first Mutual Rescue™ video released last year – the story of Eric & Peety. I particularly love the way the drawings have been introduced to the film.
