    <p>Even before Hurricane Harvey hit the Gulf Coast of Texas on August 25, 2017, authorities warned several residents to evacuate their homes.</p>
<p>Of course, that includes our four-legged friends as well. Most owners knew to make preparations for their pets to stay dry, but things got tricky for a couple of foster dogs shown below.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.luckylabrescue.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Lucky Lab Rescue and Adoption</a> put out a call on social media the Thursday just before the storm hit. They were begging for someone to volunteer to help transfer two pups, Thelma and Hercules, to a safer area.</p>
<p>They were more than happy when a young man named Connor quickly <a href="https://www.littlethings.com/hurricane-harvey-heroes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">decided to step up</a> and make the drive from Austin to Corpus Christi — and right back again with the dogs in tow.</p>
<p>Take a look below to hear more about the incredible young man the organization now calls their &#8220;hurricane hero.&#8221; You can learn more ways to help <a href="https://www.littlethings.com/hurricane-harvey-help/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">those affected by Hurricane Harvey here</a>!</p>
