Three Italian mastiffs — Steve, George and Grace — were recently rescued after surviving in the Angeles National Forest for nearly two months.
Hikers began noticing the dogs, who were most likely abandoned, in early March and alerted the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department. Unfortunately, deputies were unsuccessful in their repeated attempts to safely capture them.
For several weeks, a volunteer team from nonprofit Dog Days Search and Rescue left food, water and shelter for the dogs. In the meantime, they constructed a large pen, which all three mastiffs eventually entered, allowing the team to save them from the wilderness.
The Dog Days Search and Rescue volunteers worked alongside the LASD Montrose Search and Rescue Team, using a custom-built rope system to lower the dogs from a steep hillside to safety.
Steve, George and Grace are receiving medical care at Dog Days Search and Rescue and will be available for adoption when they are ready to find loving forever homes.
What’s New…
Hoping they find loving, forever homes.
I really wish these type if sites would give us follow ups on these posts for I’m so disgusted with the actions if these cruel humans that do this type of things. It would be nice to know what their consequences were if any.
Thank God they are now safe xx

Just when I think there isn’t any more compassion left in this world, we see a story like this one that restores my faith in humanity. Thank you to all who were involved in this rescue…our current administration could learn a thing or two from superheroes like you.
I am encouraged that so many people take notice of the neglected & abused animals in this world. I applaud the heroic efforts of rescuers who never give up on retrieving lost, abused, neglected, abandoned animals. Many thanks to everyone involved in this rescue and many hopes for finding loving home(s) for these dogs.
Someone cruelly left these dogs to find for themselves in the forest? I hope they’re trying to find the monster. But I’m so happy they are safe and will be going to kind people that will truly love them. Thank you to all the rescuers that saved those precious large babies.
