Some kind folks from Light Shine Canine Rescue happened to notice this lovely dog near an abandoned trailer home. They approached and found the dog to be quite friendly…and quite hungry. After receiving some food and love, the dog led the humans into the trailer where they discovered a litter of eight puppies.

Neighbors had done their best to keep the dogs warm and fed, but they were nonetheless cold and very hungry. We are pleased to tell you that the dogs are currently under veterinary care and will be at Animal Ark Saturday, Feb. 29.

We are in urgent need of a foster home for these dogs.

We know it’s a lot to ask, but our fervent wish is that someone reading this can offer up part of their home to this loving, devoted mom and her children. Animal Ark will house them until a foster home can be found, but after the traumatic experience they’ve endured we feel they’re deserving of a loving home that can care for mom and babies until they’re happy, healthy and strong.

Please visit our foster page if you are able to open your doors to these dogs.

Our goal is that no animal should be forced to live in conditions like those pictured below. If you are unable to foster, please consider donating to help defray the costs associated with these dogs and all our other residents.

Animal Ark thanks Light Shine Canine Rescue for helping these dogs. We thank in advance the generous family that opens their doors to this deserving canine family.
