A litter of German Shepard puppies owned by a homeless veteran and his wife were all staying in a tent in Perry County, until Tuscarora state forest ranger Steve Shaffer came by to check in on them.

Shaffer’s colleague Stephen Wacker, who is an assistant forest manager, said Shaffer “wanted to find out what the situation was and if they needed some help and obviously the change in the weather was pretty significant and a factor for them.”

With temperatures declining by the day Shaffer decided to post a Facebook message asking for help, which got more than six thousand shares. “Facebook does sort of take a life of its own. You get a story that resonates with people and gets shared and spreads around the world literally in minutes and in this case it did that very well,” said Wacker.
