We were asked to help a mom and her seven puppies who were living on the streets in a really bad area for dogs. It took quite a while for rescuers to catch them, and unfortunately, not all of them made it. Two of the puppies drowned before they could be saved, leaving just five.
Whenever we're asked to help puppies, we always ask about their mom. We don't want to save the babies and leave her behind. Unfortunately, this poor mom was in absolutely terrible shape, and just 15 minutes after she was finally caught, she passed away. I know there's no way to know for sure, but I choose to believe she held on just long enough to know her babies were finally safe.
So now we have five little puppies who have already lost their mom and two of their siblings before their lives have even really begun. They've been through so much, but we're going to do everything we can to make sure the rest of their lives look nothing like the beginning.
But we really, really need help.
I've been pretty open about the financial situation our rescue is in right now. We're still struggling, donations are down, and taking on five more puppies means even more veterinary bills, food, supplies, and eventually the cost of getting them to Maryland. None of those expenses stop just because our bank account is running low.
I know we're always asking for help, and I wish we didn't have to. But I also can't imagine turning our backs on these babies after everything they've already been through. Their mom deserved so much better, and the very least we can do is give her five surviving puppies the lives she never got to see them have.
If you're able to donate, even just $5, it truly makes a difference. Every single dollar counts, and we are incredibly grateful for everyone who continues to help us help them.
