A scraggly white Terrier named Scrim has captivated the hearts of many in New Orleans hoping to help him back to a safer, easier life in the Big Easy.
New Orleans — Scrim, already twice rescued this year, doesn't seem to know what's good for him. His knack for escaping helping hands and his catch-me-if-you-can elusiveness has led the doggo to go viral. Michelle Cheramie, with Zeus' Rescues, first saved Scrim from a life on the streets earlier this year — but in April, he broke loose. For months following his spring escape, Cheramie and many New Orleans neighbors searched for Scrim relentlessly to no avail.
'We were just trying to teach him that human hands are actually good, and not all human hands hit you, and not all human feet kick you, and it took us the first couple of months that we had to convince him of that, and he had finally come around,' Cheramie said. 'He's just in that flight mode again where humans are scary.'On Nov. 13, he jumped 13 feet out of a second-story screened window in Cheramie's home.
