Google Earth Helps Save Stray Dog

Animal advocates have long been using the technology of the day to help communicate their message about animals to the public. Television, radio, Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube are all useful devices to gain attention to animals in need.

But this video shows something else; how Google Earth was used to bring awareness to the plight of a stray dog, later named Sonya, who had been living on the streets for close to a decade. Thanks to that technology, and the work of the rescuer featured in the video below and the group Hope For Paws, Sonya got off the streets and was given a chance at a safe, loving second life.
