Lola by Barbara Jayne

20 years ago I found Lola and her lifelong companion Rudy in a NY junk yard. I embarked on a mission to rescue these 2 big dogs in the dead of a snow driven bitter cold winter. I wasn’t living in NY at the time.. I had no car, no plan and no help. But I knew I had to save them. With the guidance of the Humane Society of NY (“Lady, NY apts are small, what are you going to do if you get these animals? You don’t even live here?!”) and a special man named Jack Bax (“I don’t know you. I don’t help people but I will help you.. I have a blue van..) One dog at a time, over the course of 2 weeks. What an adventure. Mission Accomplished. We flew them to Los Angeles . Rudi and Lola would finally have a chance at new and happy lives (after they realized we were friends and weren’t eating them for dinner)! In the end, yes, I rescued these 2 wonderful dogs. But as Jack told me “You know, they really rescued you.” And they did.
