Touching True Story

Angel Dog Messenger Special Easter Edition: Puppies Rescued from the Tomb Easter Week Need partner rescue
Puppies Rescued from the Tomb
About a week ago, I noticed a mama dog in the same spot on the side of the road every day. I knew she had either just had puppies, or was about ready to have them. I started bringing her food and water. She kept her distance because she was afraid of me. But on Wednesday, April 8th, I found her sitting beside an outcropping of rocks in a church yard, waiting for me. She allowed me to pet her for the first time. That was when I heard the puppy sounds coming from the tomb-like cave under the rocks. We named her MARY. (There was even a ring of barbed wire hanging from one of the rocks.)

I called my husband, Johnny, and asked him to come and help me get the puppies out. He started pulling them out, one by one, until all 8 of them were freed.
We saw animal bones and a dead chipmunk that Mary apparently killed to survive and feed her babies. Garbage was scattered everywhere. There was a large Ziploc bag with lettuce in it lying on the ground beside the tomb. She apparently was going to eat the lettuce, but she couldn’t get into the bag. Mary has been such a devoted mother. She took very good care of her puppies. They were fat and healthy, while she was thin. She suffered so that her puppies wouldn’t have to. What a wonderful reminder of the way Jesus suffered, bled, and died, so that we could live.

“For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved” John 3:17.

Dear Friends of Angel Dog,
Mary and her puppies were admitted into Angel Dog Rescue immediately, as were several other litters in the last two weeks thanks to generous donars who helped us work our huge vet bill down.
If you would like to offer a contribution for the "Tomb Puppies" and Mary and the other babies we have recently rescued, please see the donation options below. With your continuing help Angel Dog Rescue can stay open and avoid having to freeze intakes again. Your donations are literally their only means of getting medical treatment.
We are seeking a partner rescue to place Mary and her babies with. The eight Tomb puppies are 4-week-old lab mix, fat and healthy! Mary is a Lab mix and we think Dad is a Golden/Lab mix. Interested rescues please contact: Candice Owens at http://ssomail.charter.net/do/mail/message/mailto?to=RescueFromAngelDog-owner%40yahoogroups.com.
