Most staff members at animal rescue centers are accustomed to urgent phone calls from citizens about miserable animals. Though they always try their best and prepare any necessary equipment for the rescue, some cases are still challenging for them. One example is the situation of Biggie, an elderly German Shepherd dog that was abandoned near the Los Angeles River.

The dog had been trapped in the river for a few weeks. The residents around that area provided him with food, but they struggled to get him out as there was no way to enter the place. Eventually, they looked for help from Hope For Paws, a non-profit animal rescue organization.
