One Iowa rescue’s journey to change lives – four paws at a time<\/h5>\n

It was late March\u00a02008. Amy Heinz was driving near De Soto, Iowa, when she saw a truck drive away from the side of the road. A dog had been left behind, running after its owner until the car was out of sight. When Heinz tried to get the dog to come to her, it ran away. Thinking that the dog would be caught in De Soto, Heinz continued on her way.<\/span><\/p>\n

Two days later, Heinz saw the dog again sitting by the road at the site where it had been abandoned. When Heinz tried to approach the dog, it ran again. But that didn\u2019t dissuade her. Each morning and night on her way to and from work, Heinz would look for the dog. Eventually she enlisted the help of the Animal Rescue League of Iowa, who provided her with a live trap to try and catch the dog. At around 2 a.m. in early April, Amy checked the trap and found the dog inside. Heinz took the dog home and was outside her veterinarian\u2019s office \u00a0hours later when it opened. Heinz cared for the dog, whom she named Amazing Grace, until the dog passed away in 2013. From Amazing Grace\u2019s story, AHeinz57<\/a> Pet Rescue and Transportation was born.<\/p>\n
