00:00The morning after the storm,
00:04Chela makes an exciting discovery.
00:07After we cleaned up the debris at the refuge,
00:11I went to a coffee shop looking for internet
00:14because I needed to know what was happening.
00:17I needed for my family to know that we were okay.
00:20The owner lets her in on some incredible news.
00:23The storm has created a remarkable opportunity
00:26for Chela's dog rescue.
00:28She said, Chela, it's crazy.
00:30Check the fundraiser, check the pages.
00:35Your pictures went viral.
00:37It's everywhere, everybody is sharing it.
00:40I never, in a million years,
00:42I thought that those pictures were going to be a sensation.
00:46It was insane.
00:48Donations for the refuge pour in.
00:51People around the world work to help rehome the dogs.
00:56Everybody all of a sudden knew of my dogs.
00:59I was able to send 79 dogs in two days to rehome.
01:05And pretty much everybody by now has been adopted.
01:08That was the good news about the hurricane.
01:11It took a major devastation for my dogs to find a window of opportunity to leave the Bahamas.
01:17It completes me knowing that I started something and I finished it until the end.
01:23And the end was when they found the happiness that they deserved.
01:28In this day, I was not really happy to have, I was ready for that.
01:33You didn't know what it was about to think.
01:35You didn't know what to think about, you know,
01:37I was all out of here.
01:38If you had come down and see what I've done.
01:40You didn't know what to think about, I was the same.
01:42I don't want to be through if I didn't know what to think about.
01:44For me because I got home.
01:46I don't even know where I used my family.
01:47I didn't know and they didn't know.
