A family found the dog and her puppies hidden in a wooded area by a lake and took them to Red Lake Rosie’s Rescue shelter.
Shelter workers couldn’t believe the mother dog and her puppies’ amazing story. They called her Snowbelle. “We have no idea how Snowbelle and her puppies survived,” the shelter wrote on Facebook.
And instantly, they nursed the puppies back to health: “After a few days of warm shelter and good food, Snowbelle started producing lots of milk for her babies,” the shelter wrote.
Snowbelle’s babies have grown fast. Also, they all got adopted except for two. However, Snowbelle still is not adopted either. The amazing mama, now known as Asha, is staying at Pet Projects, a rescue in Nerstrand, Minnesota.
“We don’t really know anything about her past,” Nancy Bruley, founder of Pet Projects, said. “She was very, very thin and in tough shape, so she had been scrounging on her own for a while.”
When Asha first acted the hero, she didn’t have a clue how to stroll on a leash yet she was constantly a decent young lady inside the house. “The mother was incredibly modest when she came — not forceful at all — However,” Bruley said. “Sort of frightful on the off chance that you went towards her, her head would go down. You could tell she was anxious about individuals.”
In only a month and a half, the mother dog has totally transformed, gaining 6 pounds and feeling so much better.
“She’s really blossomed,” Bruley said. “She walks well on the leash now and is much more confident. She jumps and puts her paws up on me. She’s definitely more outgoing than when she came in.”
While a mother dog is typically harder to adopt than their babies, Bruley is hopeful that Asha will find someone to give her the love she deserves.
Lastly, mothers love unconditionally, and Asha is a great mother.
