Leonberger Puppies Update

 

Here is a little history about why the Leonberger Club of America has donated money to the Rock Springs Dog Park. For those of you who do not remember there was an accident on I-80 December 11, 2006. The road was a sheet of ice and a couple traveling slid off the road. The vehicle rolled and injuring the two people and ejecting two 8 weeks old Leonberger puppies.

The male Oso was recovered a couple of days later by a citizen and the female, Oriana was found a couple days after that by Road & Bridge employees. The Leonberger Club of America had started a reward fund but the citizens involved in finding the puppies did not want money for there efforts. The club was really thankful to the community efforts and wanted to do something nice for the county. They heard about the dog park that was going to be built and decided to donate the money towards this park.
            All of us here at the Rock Springs City and Sweetwater County would like to THANK the community for all their help and effort in finding these two beautiful puppies. We hope that everyone will come and enjoy the dog park when it is complete later this year in 2008.
