A mom will always be a mom no matter what species she is.
Whether she has two legs or four, she will make sure that every single one of her babies is fed, clean, and safe from the big scary world.
When it comes to furry moms, they have a lot of this to worry about, especially if they live on the street. They must find food and shelter and they must protect their pups at all times. This also includes barking at hoomans who might actually want to help.
Rescue Mission
When a dedicated rescuer by the name of Niall Harbison heard about somebody carelessly dumping a mama pup and her babies in the middle of nowhere, he was absolutely infuriated.
Knowing that anger would get him nowhere, he managed to calm himself down, grab some yummy food, and head over to the location.
“She had a big padlock around her neck. She was dumped there with her five little puppies. I had to go and teach her that I was leaving the food, so I would put the food away from the puppies,” Niall told The Dodo.
Even though the mama pup would immediately start to aggressively bark at Niall the second she saw him, this rescuer was determined to get them somewhere safer.
After some time, the mama realized that this hooman was actually giving her and her babies some yummy food. So, she began trusting him only to the point where he could drop off the food and leave.
Niall saw this as a good sign so he came up with a plan to finally get this little family away from this dangerous place.
Easy Does It
After spending a whole week winning over her trust, Niall brought over some of his friends along with a couple of crates.
“I actually caught five puppies first and put them in the box because they were easier to catch. Obviously then she wasn’t going to run away because she didn’t want to leave her puppies. She definitely put up one last fight, but we got her into the box with the puppies and it was the biggest relief,” he added.
Without wasting any time, Niall took the family to the local vet clinic so that they could receive a thorough medical evaluation.
The first thing he did, however, was cut off a padlock from her neck, finally setting her free.
After they were determined to be happy and healthy, the puppies were put up for adoption. It came as no surprise when every single puppy found a loving home in record breaking time.
And, as for their mom, now named Brittany, she was taken in by no other than Niall!
“She is a loving dog. Super friendly. Super energetic. She’s come a long way,” he stated.
This truly is the perfect story! Not only did the puppies find happy and warm homes, but Brittany was finally able to come out of her shell and live the life she always dreamed of.
A big thank you to Niall for his hard work and dedication. You truly make this world a better place!
