In the one traffic light, southern town of Ellaville, Georgia population 1,585, Pam Dixon, founder of Deep South Canine Rescue (DSCR), finds time outside her small house cleaning business to combat the daily onslaught of abandoned dogs seen roaming the streets or dumped in the deserted countryside. With no animal control or local dog shelter in her town to rely on, and a dominant hunting culture to contend with, animal rescue is a constant uphill battle. In this episode we help DSCR save dogs Jake & Buddy from a life on chains. We meet the volunteers of this little but mighty rescue organization, and we see why “it takes a village” to get the homeless or abandoned dogs of the south to a new beginning in loving homes.
