Harrison Ford Calista Flockhart Adopt Mistreated Dogs

Harrison Ford and fiancee Calista Flockhart have already welcomed an addition to their family.
Indiana Jones and his lady have adopted a few mixed breed dogs that were abandoned after their mother was hit by a car and left to fend for herself in the cold.
Troy Jackson, executive director of Northwest Animal Companions, had been given permission by the owner to nurse the dogs back to health, but something wacky happened and the owner filed grand theft charges against him.
After much media attention, including from Oprah and Ellen DeGeneres, all charges against Jackson were dropped.
Requests from animal rights activists convinced authorities not to return the dogs to the owner.
“They’ve gone from rags to riches,” Jackson said. “They’ll live a better life than you and me ever will.”
