Newborn Puppies Were Found In A Small Box, Abandoned

This week in Texas, 7 tiny puppies clung to each other for safety while stuffed inside a small box.

They were placed outside of a local business, in the heat, abandoned and confused. On top of the box was a heavy water hose. They were so thirsty and that hose held water but unfortunately it was not there to help quench their thirst.

Instead, it was there to keep them from escaping Daylight came and allowed for them to be heard and seen by their savior. As the woman listened, she realised the sounds were coming from a cardboard box covered with a green hose.

Remarkably, by working together, the puppies had made a small crack in the box. It was large enough to poke their noses through to get some air. It’s a miracle these puppies had survived the night. She scooped them up and began contacting every nearby rescue and shelter.

Every single shelter and rescue was stretched too thin, no one could commit to feeding 7 more mouths. She was told the only option was to have them euthanized somewhere. So she decided to ask TPGHR but knew the chance was slim because we too are overstretched.

When Nancy saw their picture, she said” “It’s an awful feeling looking at 7 little puppies and being the reason that they live or die.”

However, when the president of TPGHR heard about the plight of the seven puppies, she knew they had to do something to help. So with TPGHR’s support, the woman took all seven puppies home to foster.

All 7 puppies are currently safe and we will try our best to help them live. They will stay with her as fosters while we wait to see if they are safe from Parvo, Distemper and other illnesses. There are 2 girls, 5 boys and all seem to be healthy.

They will ensure they receive appropriate vetting and get the medical care that they need. The puppies are doing well in their new temporary home. It’s hoped that it won’t be long before they are ready to be adopted.
