We turn on to Dauphin Street to go to the park and in the middle of Dauphin this gigantic beautiful dog was sitting right in the middle of the street. He was trying to get to cars and no one was stopping for him. We stopped, along with another gentlemen who had his son and his small dog with him. We had an extra leash in the back seat because we had Bella Luna Roma (my dog) with us. We stopped and pulled into a lot. The dog heard Bella barking and he followed our car to the side of the road. We had already had traffic backed up trying to get him off the road. My mom got out and he seemed friendly and he wanted to find his car. My mom looped Bella\u2019s leash around him and the gentlemen who stopped could not take him due to his dog and his son and we had Bella Luna Roma with us. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">The man offered to stay with the dog so we could go home and I could get my car and go back for him. My mom took me home to get my car and I drove back to Dauphin Street and the gentlemen stayed with the dog. I took the dog in my car. He was friendly and seemed lost and a little scared but thrilled to jump right in my car! He sat on my lap, kissed my face and almost gave me a huge hug in dog language. My mom started calling him Fred and he responded. We could not keep him because of Bella Luna Roma and many other reasons. We took him to Lehigh County Humane Society 640 Dixon Street, Allentown, PA 18103 \u2013 Phone 610-797-1205.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-28565\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Hercules.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"632\" height=\"421\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Hercules.jpg 632w, https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Hercules-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 632px) 100vw, 632px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">HERCULES \u2013 PHOTO FROM THE LEHIGH COUNTY HUMANE SOCIETY\u2019S WEBSITE <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">This was a difficult rescue.
