Found one dog, came home with ten – a true story!

Some time ago a family walked with their own dog in Kolossi and came across a skinny Labrador Cross.

The dog was thin but they also saw an unusually fat belly. This dog was pregnant!

After the family supplied the dog with water, she followed them to the car. She probably realised that these people would be good to her.  At the car they gave her some food.

The family thought about what they could do with this dog and decided to take her home. They decided they could not leave this poor dog to who knows what fate.

When they arrived at home, the birth began in the back seat of the car. They got her quickly into a large dog box as she had already given birth to the first puppy. Gradually, more and more puppies came into the world and in the end there were nine puppies!

The puppies are all born healthy and were immediately cared for by their mummy. This female dog is a good mother.

The mother dog was very lucky that she was in the right place at the right time and met these people. Who knows what would have happened to her and the puppies if she would have stayed at this location with no help.

We thank the family for taking the mother dog and for the loving care of the puppies. God bless these people and all people who don´t look away in this sort of situation.

Luckily the family were able to find space for the mum and puppies in a shelter, because they couldn’t keep them at home. Soon they will appear in “All dogs to adopt”.
