Charlie the Golden Retriever: His Shocking and Amazing Rescue

Charlie was first noticed by rescuer Tanya Bomberger on February 1st, 2010.  Tanya was driving her regular school bus route and saw a Golden Retriever in the yard of one of her young, student passengers.  The child told her it was not his dog and Tanya recognized that he was not a dog from the area.

Intrigued, she finished her bus route and returned to where she first saw the dog.  Charlie had not left and after an quick assessment of the dog, Tanya realized he was wounded.  She put Charlie on the school bus and took him to her vet and was given antibiotics for what was initially determined to be a dog fight wound.

Tanya then called Kami Brandt of K&K Pet Rescue in Nebraska and told her about the beautiful, purebred, Golden Retriever that she had found on the side of the road.  Kami proceeded to call CAWL for assistance with the dog.  Charlie was transferred to CAWL in Colorado on February 4th, 2010.
