Tara Bramblett Newberry watched a brown and white dog roll around in the leaves and grass outside Southern Star Pet Grooming and Boarding. This happy puppy’s name was Molly. Molly rolled onto her back, begging for a belly rub with her paws hanging beneath her chin, knowing Newberry would bend over to pet her. She did, and the dog smiled, its tongue hanging out as Newberry recounted the pup’s rescue story.
She first saw Molly two years ago, when she spotted a mother and her puppy walking around in the woods near Martin Dam. Newberry had grown up rescuing any dogs she or her father found on their land. Throughout her entire life, she has found lost dogs, taken them in, cleaned them, fed them and found homes for them. She felt compelled to rescue these skinny, bruised dogs, but it wasn’t easy. Every time Newberry approached, the dogs ran away.
