🐾 Meet Dolly, Mack, Teddy 🐾

Last Friday, we were contacted about a group of puppies being surrendered from a property where they had been left outside to fend for themselves among a large number of dogs. They had never experienced human contact and had spent their short lives surviving on their own.

There were originally 8 puppies.

Only 3 made it out.

Thankfully, two of our incredible foster families stepped up immediately to help these babies begin a new chapter. We truly cannot thank our fosters enough. Time and time again, they open their homes, adjust their schedules, lose sleep, and pour their hearts into animals who desperately need help. Without them, stories like this would not have happy endings.

When the puppies arrived, the number of ticks covering them was unreal—we removed hundreds. The smallest gray pup, Mack, was in especially rough shape. He has some skin issues likely caused by the heavy tick infestation, but with proper care, his fur should grow back beautifully. He also needed Sub-Q fluids to help get him back on track.

All three puppies received Nutri-Cal, flea and tick baths, Bravecto, and Liqui-Tinic. Most importantly, they received something they had never known before: love, comfort, safety, and full bellies.

For the past week, they've been settling into their foster homes, learning how to be puppies. They've been playing, snuggling, exploring, and soaking up every bit of attention they can get. The transformation has been incredible to watch.

Are they not absolutely gorgeous?

🐶 Mack – Gray male (the smallest of the bunch)
🐶 Teddy – Chocolate male
🐶 Dolly – Gray female

We believe they are Newfoundland/Weimaraner mixes, although there are likely a few other breeds mixed in there as well. Whatever their heritage may be, one thing is certain—they are wonderful puppies with bright futures ahead of them.

Before they leave our care, they will be spayed/neutered, microchipped, dewormed, Heartworm tested, and up to date on all age-appropriate vaccinations.
