I'm afraid, Bill, that "rescue dog" has a different meaning here than
there. Here, it usually means that the person rescues the dog, not
vice versa. Whether Fred intended it that way I'm not sure, but I
expect he did.

Thanks for the clarification and rw is correct - We would give a home to a
distressed animal
So we would rescue the dog
and give a good home w 6 other dogs in the pack running loose all the time
