More than three dozen dogs were evacuated to help make room for animals lost or displaced by the fires in Los Angeles. Now, the San Diego Humane Society is asking for help fostering the dogs. Then, Tijuana officials plan to open a shelter in response to President-elect Donald Trump’s promise of mass deportations.
Dozens of dogs from the devastating wildfires in L-A have been evacuated to San Diego. More on that next. But first... let’s do the headlines….A red flag wildfire warning is still in effect for parts of eastern San Diego County due to strong Santa Ana winds and dry weather. It ends at 6 p.m. tonight .
“We don't know where there's going to be a spark if there will be so we want to prevent those. That's not predictable but what is predictable is the weather and how dry it is. And if we do get a spark, how erratic and extreme behavior, where the fires may be impossible to stop in some cases or just difficult overall.
San Diego Humane Society shelters were already overcrowded … but when the Pasadena Humane Society called … they stepped up. Jordan Frey with the San Diego Humane Society says our region is no stranger to wildfires. “We're really grateful to be able to help in an emergency. Just as we know our animal welfare partners in California and beyond would help us as well” More than three dozen dogs were evacuated to help make room for animals lost or displaced by the fires.
Tijuana Mayor Ismael Burgueno says the city is taking a proactive approach. They’re planning a shelter with enough room for 10,000 people … and the ability to increase capacity to 30,000. He says a large shelter will prevent encampments in public spaces. Los espacios públicos en el municipio no serán utilizados para migrantes. Yo creo que los espacios públicos no deben de utilizarse.
