When resolute rescuers from Trio Animal Foundation succeeded in rescuing a pregnant dog named Lily from a breeder who was treating her inhumanely, their thoughts were solely focused on how joyful and healthy her puppies would be under their supervision.
The initial measure to turn this dream into reality was to ensure that their mother had everything she could ever wish for and require.
Moreover, as these humans cherished animals, she received precisely that.
One Happy Mama
The first priority was to take Lily to the Companion Animal Hospital in Wicker Park, Chicago, where they conducted X-rays of her abdomen. The images indicated that the dog was expecting 7 puppies.
Everyone was ecstatic about this fantastic news.
The Chicago veterinarians concluded that it would be best to carry out an emergency C-section on Lily, which took place the following day.
Regrettably, one puppy did not survive, but the remaining six, along with their mother, were in excellent health.
After giving birth, Lily was not feeling well. She was fatigued and even turned down food and water. Just four days later, she had to undergo another urgent surgery.
The veterinarians later established that she was facing complications from her C-section, which aggravated her condition.
To aid Lily’s recovery, the medical team stepped in as caretakers, ensuring that her puppies had everything they required.
This support continued for ten days. The puppies were nourished with a syringe while Mama received all the medication necessary for her swift recuperation.
As time progressed, unfortunately, another of Lily’s puppies succumbed. Despite her sorrow, she was resolute in her desire to be reunited with the remaining members of her litter.
Following twenty days of rigorous medical care, Lily was at last reunited with her puppies.
The bliss that this proud mother experienced upon seeing her babies again was beyond description.
New Life
As time passed, Lily was regaining her vitality, and the puppies were becoming larger and cuter.
They delighted in exploring their kennel and having enjoyable play sessions together, but their absolute favorite moments were when Mama participated.
And naturally, there was a compulsory nap following each play session.
I have no doubt that, in due time, each and every one of these remarkable puppies will discover a caring family that will continue to provide them with the nurturing and wonderful life that they deserve.
Until then, I hope they continue to bond so well, flourishing in their foster environment, and bringing happiness to all who encounter them.
