Stacey Savige, had an early morning request for her neighbor Yolanda Sevogia. She wanted to know if Yolanda could watch the dog she had discovered at the local elementary school. She agreed to watch the rescued dog for one day. Both women got busy trying to find the dog’s owner and printed and distributed over 4,000 “Found” fliers and even put an ad on Craigslist.

Yolanda purchased some food and supplies for the dog. She while hoping her two sons Azaiah (10) and Christian (21) would not want to keep the dog. Christian had recently had surgery for his heart and kidneys related to Down’s Syndrome and other medical conditions.

After four days Yolanda and her family were still caring for the dog who they had named RaeLee (pronounced Riley). That day as she came up to the house, RaeLee started barking frantically and threw himself up against the screen door. Once he had her attention, RaeLee ran into the boy’s room where Christian was having a severe seizure. The dog ran over to her son and as soon as Yolanda started to help Christian, RaeLee stopped barking.
