In 2005 Deiter and Bella were among many animals abandoned in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. Best Friends, an animal rescue out of Utah, saved the dogs and adopted them out to New Orleans residents Paul and Christine Fowler. The Fowlers later relocated with their dogs to Haiti. Last month, when a massive earthquake shook Haiti, Paul Fowler searched unsuccessfully through the rubble and thought for sure his dogs had perished. But as he was about to give up hope, he heard Deiter bark. The dogs were on the third floor of their apartment building buried under a bed that was covered in debris.  As if one natural disaster isn’t enough, these two canine troopers survived two major natural disasters!  The whole family is now back in the US, once again residing in New Orleans.
