In it, Trooper was clearly scared and agitated, barking at the man who found him and was trying to calm him down. The dog was standing in waters that came up to his legs, as rain continued to fall. <\/p>\n<p>The pup was found off of Interstate 75: an evacuation route for the tens of thousands of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/topic\/florida\">Floridians<\/a> who raced away from the state\u2019s west coast. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have so much appreciation for how that was handled by that trooper and how much care he took in rescuing him and making sure that he had a soft place to land, Katie Stryker, Leon County Humane Society\u2019s graphic design and marketing coordinator, told<em> The Independent <\/em>on Friday. \u201cThat was definitely above and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The humane society, which is based in Tallahassee, does not know <a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/news\/world\/americas\/florida-tampa-dog-tied-fence-hurricane-milton-b2626961.html\">how Trooper became attached to the chicken wire fencing<\/a>, or how long he was tied up for. His nails are trimmed and he is a healthy weight. They haven\u2019t had a chance to speak with the trooper who rescued the dog.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sc-482ou5-2 eOHevC image align-none\">\n<figure class=\"sc-1cbdeug-0 cpcmmN\">\n<div data-gallery-length=\"2\" class=\"sc-482ou5-0 gHomzX\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.independent.co.uk\/2024\/10\/11\/20\/025A9970.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.independent.co.uk\/2024\/10\/11\/20\/025A9970.jpg?quality=75&amp;width=320&amp;auto=webp 320w, https:\/\/static.independent.co.uk\/2024\/10\/11\/20\/025A9970.jpg?quality=75&amp;width=640&amp;auto=webp 640w\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"A dog that stranded uring the Hurricane Milton has a new name - Trooper\" class=\"sc-1mc30lb-0 iSVhwZ inline-gallery-btn\" on=\"tap:auto-image-gallery,inline-image-carousel.goToSlide(index=1)\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" data-gallery-length=\"2\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"sc-1cbdeug-1 sc-1cbdeug-3 hiCdLa liXvvg\">A dog that stranded uring the Hurricane Milton has a new name &#8211; Trooper<span class=\"sc-1cbdeug-7 izyooE\"> <!-- -->(<!-- -->Leon County Humane Society<!-- -->)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve seen dogs that were on leash, get spooked [and] run off, especially in the middle of an evacuation. It\u2019s possible [he] was stuck,\u201d Stryker said. <\/p>\n<p>No charges have been filed in connection to the incident. <\/p>\n<p>Although Trooper is now in the society\u2019s care, he had initially been taken to the Hillsborough Pete Resource Center, where he was given a clean bill of health and checked for a microchip. After determining that the dog was abandoned, he was released to the same trooper who saved him. <\/p>\n<p>No original owner has come forward, although Trooper was mistakenly listed as having been \u201creturned to owner.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then, the governor\u2019s office called asking if the humane society could take Trooper from emergency management services and transport him from Hillsborough County to Leon County. Trooper was driven to Tallahassee and he\u2019s been in foster care.<\/p>\n<p>Trooper is stressed and anxious, Stryker said, and new places and people make him feel uncomfortable. <\/p>\n<p>But Trooper is starting to warm up to people, and they\u2019ve learned more about him. For example, he likes swimming, but might not like children. He\u2019s not yet up for adoption yet, and they hope to learn more about him in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want to know more so that we can put him in the best home and have that home be his forever home,\u201d Stryker said. <\/p>\n<p>There are 200 animals in the society\u2019s care right now, including cats also rescued during the hurricane.<\/p>\n<p>Stryker stressed that Trooper is not the only dog with a story and not the only dog in need of a home there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGo out and adopt a dog because there are so many more like Trooper that didn\u2019t get famous that still need you.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/news\/world\/americas\/florida-dog-rescue-hurricane-trooper-b2628054.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your support helps us to tell the story Read more This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls.
