Please don't turn this into a "there should be humans on that bus" fight.
Its just a feel good picture, I'm glad to see people are saving people's pets they aren't allowed to take with them into the helicopter or bus. Nothing more, nothing less.
Its probably the most heartwarming picture I've seen all day.
If you want, go ahead and donate to the ASPCA too:

Dogs and cats and everything else are gonna need help in an already overfilled/overstressed animal shelter situation in this country.
