Four years ago today, the path of Emergency Rescue Consultancy had been laid and set - and on that same day, this path changed two human lives, forever.
It started with a single post by our late founder, Richard Morrison - looking for someone to train. Someone who could learn the craft of humane dog trapping, the right way. After years of developing his craft and serving as a pinnacle of the lost dog community - he knew it was time to find someone to show the ropes, who could then take the reigns of the incredible cornerstone he started from the ground up.
What he didn’t know then, was that his post would find the right person, at exactly the right time.
Just a week later, Brittany volunteered to go on a trapping case with him after a chance connection over a shared heart for a dog in need of medical care. When she read his checklist of what it would take to fill his shoes, she got butterflies. It just felt right. And... it was.
That first trapping case, turned into a calling. What began as a one-time offer to help, has grown into the work ERC does today - still rooted firmly in Richard’s standards, still focused wholeheartedly on fulfilling our mission, the right way.
One dog at a time.
Richard didn’t just teach trapping. He taught patience, he taught fortitude, he taught purpose, and most of all - he taught what it means to truly show up for any dog in need.
Today, we carry on what he started all those years ago, and his voice, direction, lessons, and expertise resonate throughout every tried and true method that ERC embodies.
We wanted to share this post today in celebration of the service we have built, and continue to foster in this region. We need your support now, more than ever.
