So big things have been happening over here this week! On Monday we were brought a litter of 9 Doberman puppies that were 6 days old, and had lost their mom on Mother's Day. A family devastated by the loss of their baby, but wanting to do everything they could to save the babies.
Puppies arrived skin and bones due to lack of milk production, and some with pneumonia. We enlisted the help of Westwing Kennels mama Mila who has 3 week old pups, at Club Meg Dog Training, LLC here in Scottsdale.
My assistant Destiny and I, along with Meg have all worked around the clock to get weight on these Littles and get them healthy and thriving. Sadly, we've lost 2 tiny babies along the way, likely due to the pneumonia. We are working tirelessly to do our best.
We are so grateful for our community and friends' help along with for all the help we've had this week, and will continue to have until these Littles can all eat mush on their own and the 3 can return back here with me until they are ready for their furever homes.
Forever grateful, forever fighting for those that can't fight for themselves!
This was a friendly reminder to many that "oh I just want her to have 1 litter to see what its like" or to keep a puppy, with no whelping experience or emergency budget can go very wrong, very fast.
Please keep us and these Littles in your prayers, as we are not out of the woods yet!
