Security Team Was Heartbroken To Discover A Furry Family Tethered To A Sign At The Shelter’s Driveway
One cold morning, a mama dog felt powerless after she was dumped and tethered to a sign at the end of the shelter’s driveway.
She was scared and worried that something would happen to her four little furbabies who kept trembling with cold.
The puppies buried their faces in their mother’s arms, seeking comfort and warmth.
The mama dog rested her head on the cold ground while wrapping herself around her pups and trying to keep them warm.
She desperately hoped that someone would jump to their aid and bring them to a warm and safe place.
A Heartbreaking Sight
As soon as the security team at Kloof and Highway SPCA saw that a furry creature was tethered in the driveway, they informed Inspector Kerrie Andrews.
The giant-hearted woman assumed that it was a dog who needed assistance, so she rushed to their aid
Once Inspector Andrews arrived at the scene, her heart sank. The sight was far more sorrowful than she imagined it to be.
A malnourished mother dog and her little babies huddled together as they were lying on the ground.
The giant-hearted woman noticed that the mother was the only one who was tied up.
Luckily, her babies stayed by her side.
Inspector Andrews hoped to get the canine family inside the shelter as soon as possible.
Having realized that the mama dog was distrustful and protective of her babies, the good woman started working on gaining her trust.
The giant-hearted human was extremely patient to her, and she talked to her in a soft voice
Luckily, she succeeded in easing the mother’s worries and winning her over.
“Mom was nervous and did not trust Inspector Andrews, but with a bit of gentle talking and patience, she soon realized that she was safe. The puppies were just happy to be with their mom and out of the cold,” Brigitte Ferguson, a marketing assistant at Kloof and Highway SPCA, told
The Doggy Family Feels Safe
After the mother dog accepted her help, the staff took the canine family inside.
Their primary goal was to keep them warm. The staff gently placed the doggy family in a bed under a heating lamp and provided the furbabies with hot water bottles
The good humans fed the mama dog with nutritious meals so that she could regain her strength and care for her babies.
Since the mother was diagnosed with fleas, ticks, and worms, she began receiving treatment right away.
Ever since they have been rescued, the canine family has been thriving.
The mother dog has gained a significant amount of weight and she is visibly healthier.
When she meets new people, the canine still gets anxious, but once she spends some time with them, she asks for cuddles.
The puppies are doing well and they love playing with each other.
Soon, the mother and her babies will start searching for loving families.
I hope that the lovely family will find the forever homes that they deserve and humans who will love them to the moon and back
