Emergency Animal Rescue Support (E.A.R.S) is a local volunteer network based in North Yorkshire.
Their aim is to rescue dogs from urgent put to sleep situations and place them in foster care until they can be rehomed or rescue space is available for them.
You can find out more information about E.A.R.S on their website.

WISHING YOU ALL A HAPPY 2012 FROM ALL OF US AT E.A.R.S
We have only been in operation for a few weeks and we have already achieved so much, a huge thank you to everyone, without your support some of the animals on this photo may not have been here as they were in at risk situations and may have been pts if we hadn’t stepped in to help when asked. Almost all of these lovely dogs are settled in new homes and some are being sponsored on our support scheme. Without you this would not have been possible. I hope that we go from strength to strength in 2012 and can rescue many more at risk animals.
New Residents
We have a new sponsor dog, Dusty who is 12 years old and is happily settled in a new home and supported on our sponsor scheme, thanks to the article in the Northern Echo on the 28th December. You can see Dusty’s full story on the sponsor animals page on our website.
Bono came into our care on sat 7th Jan and he is reserved and hopefully going to his new home on Monday, a real little sweetie, that came to us with reported medical problems, but we believe this was due to diet as he has shown no signs of any problems, but his possible new owner is aware and is prepared to cover any vet bills he may incur in the future.
Farrel met with her potential new owners on Sunday 8th and is going to her new home on the 21st, she will be living with another rescued akita and 2 cats and will be regularly visiting a cavalier king charles. She has a great temprement and is a lovely dog, she came to us as an at risk pts emergency and is 8 years old, shes off to live in scarborough so she will have some nice runs on the beach aswell as living on a farm, we hope her new owners have many happy years with her.
