When Katie and Alex with Hope For Paws received a call about a husky abandoned at a construction site they could immediately tell the dog was pregnant. How pregnant would take the rescuers by surprise.
As they approached the husky, she turned away and led the two women over to her makeshift den where she was planning to have her puppies. Thankfully, the dog was gentle and let the two rescuers leash her and take her away from the dangerous area.
They named her Mallory and transported her to the vet where the doctors gave her an x-ray and confirmed Mallory had seven puppies. She needed to get clean for her big day and so they gave her a bath and washed away a lot of dirt. The veterinarians also gave her an ultrasound and it revealed that the puppies were due any minute.
That minute turned out to be the very next day! It’s a good thing that Mallory was at Katie’s home because she could relax and not be stressed while giving birth. Also all the pups were safe, which would not have been the situation at the construction site.
Three weeks later, all the pups are thriving. Hollywood Huskies if fostering the family and the puppies will be available for adoption when they are weaned.
