Maruko is a misunderstood 14-year-old dog who was trapped in the rubble for 11 days after the events of March 11th. She was eventually freed and her owners were contacted, but they had lost everything and could not keep her in the relief shelter in which they were staying. She was surrendered to the city pound, where she was labeled as aggressive and was going to be gassed down. With the help of a dedicated veterinarian, Dr. Takahashi, the volunteers of JEARS and Kinship Circle fought for Maruko's life, and WON! Maruko is now in her new temporary home in a shelter connected to JEARS. For full details of her story, please visit the blog of the video's creator, Kate O'Callaghan, at http://earthquakepets.blogspot.com/ JEARS gratefully thanks Kate for letting us share this video and also Karl Wilcock for filming the footage.
