" I heard they were taking in 100 dogs a day lost or displaced because of hurricane Harvey," said Wings of Rescue founder Cindy Smith.
"Moving these pets to rescue shelters will make room for the lost pets of Harvey so they can be safe until reunited with their families," Smith added.

Smith told AC7 News private donations have kept her nonprofit organization going since 2012.
Over the past 24 hours, more than 200 dogs and 20 cats have been moved out of shelters around south Texas and Louisiana.
