Once again we received a call for help from a pound.
A spaniel mix female dog and her about 4 weeks old six puppies are urgently looking for admission in a shelter.
A pound was and is really not the place for a single mom and her puppies.
Unfortunately, all shelters are full of dogs, and a prospect of improvement is not in sight, as not many dogs leave the shelters, so we can´t plan, when we find a space in a shelter for the dog family.
Every day we have to reject requests for dogs, which breaks our hearts, because we know this is for most of the dogs the certain death. But what can we do? All shelters are full, no one has a free space.
When we also reject Emma and her puppies it could also just mean their death sentence.
There are days… we can´t reject a request again for a whole dog family and therefore we must find a solution.
At Emma, we are entered a major financial risk, because we have billeted the whole family in a boarding kennel, without knowing when we find a place in a shelter for them. And so Emma, her five sons and a daughter moved into a boarding kennel.
They are doing splendidly and the puppies grow slowly up to be beautiful little dogs. All 6 are as sweet as sugar and her mum Emma is no less beautiful. She has a loving and gentle character. She takes good care of her puppies.
We will shortly introduce all of them here on our website, and hope for all seven that they will find a great home. Of course, we hope this especially for Emma, because mostly the puppies were very quickly adopted and the mothers have to stay at the shelter for a long time.
If you want to help us, we would appreciate a small donation to continue to fund the hotel costs.
Update 25.06.2014
We are very sad, unfortunately we have not good news of Emma and her puppies gang. We hoped and fought but lost – 3 little puppies are died.
We don´t know why, none of our vets could find out what they lack. One of the boys was dead in the morning, the girl and another boy were getting weaker and weaker until we had to redeem them, so they torturing yourself any longer.
We suspect that they may already be carrying a virus in them. But what they really lack, we don´t know.
The other three puppies are doing well so far, fortunately, they are typical lively and playful puppies.
Emma and her puppies are due to the current situation still in the Boarding Kennel.
Although now 3 puppies died, her siblings and her mom need our help.
